I am getting a new M1 MBP, upgrading from a 2015 MBP, and I was thinking about what is the best way in terms of migration to changing to this new device and setting it up?
I have a few slight issues with this current machine that I am on (the 2015 MBP) that I think occurred when I downloaded some CUDA drivers or something but it is that long ago I am not quite sure, and quite obviously seeing 7 years of usage all kinds of things have been downloaded and installed and a certain percent been deleted again.
Now quite obviously I want my new MBP to be set up the best that it can be in relation to this one but without any of the old files left behind from old apps etc although I do try and keep on top of things and do housekeeping on a regular basis. Plus as I have already said I think that I have a few buggy files that effect the system occasionally although I have never been able to track them down, and obviously I won't be migrating all Intel based apps over to M1.
So what do you think is the best way for me to migrate?
Also I have been looking at MBP cases/sleeves and there is one with a magnetic closer but I have always been lead to believe that magnets and speakers, and in fact any form of circuitry, are a bad combination and that you should never leave a magnet near such things. Has anyone also got any advice on this please?
Thanks in advance ☺️
