Before digging into the Ventura upgrade, I'd like to cover my bases since the reinstallation landscape has been changing over the last few years. What are the current best practices to be able to roll back to Monterey (macOS 12) if something goes wrong with Ventura (macOS 13)?
I have an 8tb internal drive that is nearly full so the normal "restore from Time Machine" is a laughable option since the transfer alone from Time Machine would take a couple days for me based on previous experience and testing...
So I'm hoping we have some better snapshot options for recovery vs full data transfers that also generate wear on the internal drive that we really don't want to push that hard if unnecessary.
