The computer should be able to move to Sonoma 14.3.1 directly


Though, I personally suggest updating to the latest macOS Ventura 13.6.4


If you run the Software Update Applet in System Setting, pay special attention as it may offer the Sonoma 14.3.1 first and also offer Ventura 13.6.4


That is, if you what to do the Ventura update First and then the Sonoma 14.3.1 after


Always make a Time Machine Backup  before doing any upDates / upGrades
