Alright clever folks of MacRumors, I come to you with questions!
I'm installing a secondary SSD on my MacBook Pro Mid-2012 and removing my optical drive.
My ultimate goal is to have my SSD do the heavy lifting for OS X Mavericks, my Apps and big files for the work that I do.
The current HDD that I have in this puppy I want to keep as storage.
My question is...how can I transfer OS X Mavericks, my Apps and big files onto my SSD once I install it? My SSD will probably be recognized as the secondary hard drive, but I want it to be the bootable hard drive with all that big stuff. I'm doing a backup currently with TimeMachine just in case.
Thanks in advance MacRumors peeps! Even though I'm a new poster, I've been lurking around the forums a bit and like your community
