UPGRADING 10.5.8 TO 10.7 WITH NEW INTERNAL MBP DRIVE
Been trying to bring my 17' MacBookPro Core2Duo into the 21st century, but the lack of room on the tiny 90GB drive is making it tough. There is not enough room on it to load the new OS or backup my 16GB iPhone.
I have a blank MomentusXT 500GB hybrid drive ready to use and I would like to go from OS 10.5.8 to Lion. I have the Snow Leopard install DVD as well.
Can I ask for your advice on the 'best" way to perform this upgrade in steps?
I will have no problem doing the physical swap of the drives, but migrating my existing apps and files is of great concern to me.
MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.7.2)
