I have 2 computers, a faster iMac at work (i5) and an old macbook (C2DUO 2.0Ghz) at home.
The macbook at home has a SSD drive in it, I upgraded it and it's performance is really great.
Now I was wondering, instead of having to my macbook to work everyday, would be worth it to take the SSD out and boot into it from an external case?? This way I only need to take the drive and just plug it in.
I only have an uSB2 case.
I would think you would have problems booting to a SSD with an operating system on it configured for a different hardware setup. Have you actually tried do it? – martineau – 2013-01-09T18:41:15.250
1That would be a waste, regardless of it working or not. USB 2.0 speeds don't max out traditional hard drives. That said, the only benefit is having everything in one place. But you could just as easily get a large flash drive and work from that. – nerdwaller – 2013-01-09T19:26:30.620
