Migration when experiencing an OS issue on old MAC
Since the last two updates to Big Sur (11.2.3) my current Mac Pro has bogged down considerably because of a kernel_task issue that is using 1225% of my resources. I've tried finding the culprit program causing this with no use. Considering the age of my machine I've decided to just buy a new 13" Mac Pro laptop to replace it. My question is, considering I am having this issue, is it safe for me to use Mirgration to transfer the contents of my old to the new or will I just be exporting my headache from one machine to the other? Would it be safer to just migrate files and re-install applications from scratch on the new?
Mac Pro, macOS 11.2
