OS X v10.6 Snow Leopard to OS X Yosemite

Hello,

Can I upgrade to OS X Yosemite without a backup? I don't care about my docs, what matters are the system files. I'm afraid ,if something goes wrong during/after upgrade, I will lose everything! I don't have an external hard drive. Thanks

MacBook, Mac OS X (10.6.8)

You can try, but it is like playing Russian Roulette and not knowing what is in the gun.


Get an external hard disk.


And read more about what compatibility gets lost when you upgrade:
