Notebook: Acer Aspire 7745g
Graphics: ATI Mobility Radeon HD5650 + Intel (r) HD Graphics (switchable graphics cards)
CPU: Intel(R) Core(TM) i5 CPU M 450 @ 2.40GHz
Audio: Realtek ALC670 @ Intel Ibex Peak PCH + ATI Radeon HDMI @ ATI Redwood/Madison
Wi-Fi: Broadcom BCM43225 802.11b/g/n Wireless Network Adapter
With many helpful replies I have my laptop running MacOS 10.12.6 with just a few more tweaks will be perfect. It was a big struggle as my skills (lack of) really aren't up to the challenge so I hoped cloning what works so far would be optimum with speeding things up with a SSD.
The laptop has a great dual hard drive setup and I was thinking on simply cloning the working 500G HD over to a 250G SSD.
I've had no success with CCC as the HDD only has 40G on it and the file transfer starts quick but after 10 mins 50% done it slows to a crawl and after 4hrs errors out.
Clonezilla doesn't appear to resize...
I was hoping to clone to the smaller SSD and then copy over the working EFI and apfs.efi etc.
Any suggestions of course would be welcomed.
