Hi,

Yep, I will be letting the OS do the managing but I'm sort of asking a question just for my own interest about when SD copies my clone which is now about 1tb back to my new what will be 2.5TB fusion drive, I'm wondering what order stuff will come over.

Does SD first copy the system files and then the application folder? Is there a hierarchy of order that SD uses to clone back to the internal.

I think I remember reading a long time ago that when copying a clone back to a HD that SD effectively defragments as well because it takes the opportunity to reorder any fragmented files.

So I assume that SD has some sort of logical order for cloning a complete bootable system. I was wondering what that order actually is? I understand that however the data comes across that over time the OS will reorganise things, but I'm just wanting to have a bit of an idea how SD will send it over. I hope I'm making sense here.
