I have one of those two-bay USB - SATA hard drive gadgets, it has a clone drive function that works all by itself. I've used it a few times for relatively pain-free drive cloning. But the last time I used it on a Mac drive, the Mac flatly refused to let me expand the partitions to use the whole drive (the new one was bigger). It wouldn't even let me create a second partition in the empty space. -- uname -rsvp Linux 3.10.0-1160.102.1.el7.x86_64 #1 SMP Tue Oct 17 15:42:21 UTC 2023 x86_64 Boilerplate: All unexpected mail to my mailbox is automatically deleted.
