So I just bought a new 27in iMac 2017 (3.8ghz i5 / 40GB RAM / 2TB FD / Radeon Pro 580 w/ 8GB VRAM) and now waiting to get off of work to pick it up at the Apple Store. As I wait till the clock ticks till closing time, I'm thinking of things that I will need to do when setting up the computer like, moving my photo library, logging into all my online storage accounts, 1password etc. I plan on starting fresh and not restoring from a backup as most of my important documents are online.
I wanted to see what you guys do when you buy a new computer and see if I can incorporate into my process!? It can be as "unimportant" as picking out a new 5K wallpaper, setting up external monitors, cable management, or more involved things like "de-fusioning" the Fusion Drive?
Bonus question: Should I worry about APFS (Apple File System) vs. Mac OS Extended (HFS+)? From my understanding it doesn't really apply to me because my iMac has a Fusion Drive.
