    Does Restoring a Time Machine Backup Repair the OS?

    Ok I understand I can reinstall Mac OS from the Command + R Menu and the OS is reinstalled without touching (we hope) my files unless I erase the disk first. However, what if I just choose to restore a Time Machine Backup? Is any disk repair or OS repair performed or is it just a clone of the...

    MacOS High Sierra New SSD

    I have an early 2015 13in Retina display MacBook Pro (A1502) that I purchased from Goodwill. It did not have a hard drive. I have one on the way, but it's not Apple OEM so I know the MBP will not recognize it without the firmware update required by High Sierra. I've been running the MBP from...
