Bootable Clone Question
Hey, just wondering if when creating a bootable clone of my Mac's internal hard drive, does the external hard drive I'm making the clone on need to be at least the same size as my Mac's hard drive, or just big enough to hold the actual data that's on the Mac's hard drive?
My iMac has a 1TB drive, but more than half of that is still free space. I have a 500GB external drive (pulled from my old Macbook) which I'd like to use for the clone. Would it be possible?
Thanks for any help.
