May 04, 2016 Mac migration includes moving all the files, user accounts, settings, and apps to another Mac hard drive. Migration Assistant copies all files to the new Mac drive so that users do not have to execute the migration manually. This is an in-built utility which is stored in ‘Utilities’ folder within the ‘Applications’ folder.

While the primary purpose of the software is to move your OS from a mechanical hard drive to an SSD, it should just as easily be able to migrate bootable system partitions between two SSDs of different sizes (or hard drives for that matter). That’s why Migrate OS to SSD continues to be our software of choice for this task.
