Hi everybody! I would appreciate some help about the following situation.
I use my Hackintosh for Audio production/recording, that means, using A LOT of that kind of software: ProTools, Kontakt Libraries, and many virtual instruments and plugins. Im currently running Mavericks 10.9.5 and everything is working fine, but Im feeling my system is starting to "be old" regarding new versions of certain software that isnt compatible with my system. So Im thinking about updating my system to Sierra or High Sierra.
First, what do you think about updating with this hardware setup?
Gigabyte GA-Z97X-UD3H
Core Intel i7 4790 Haswell
16 GB DDR3 (2x 8192MB) 1866 MHZ KINGSTON HYPER X FURY240GB Kingston v400 (Mac OS - Apps)
1 TB Caviar Blue (Storage)
2 TB Caviar Black (Storage)
1TB SSD (Storage)
On the other hand what I would REALLY like is to update my system without having to Re Install and Organize all my stuff from zero, because you know that takes many many time that i would like to avoid that situation. Whats the best option in this scenario? Can I update to a newer OS and then try to recover all my software/configuration from my actual setup?
Thanks in advance to everybody that can help me with this!
