Bob, First, let me say, I enjoy people who are good at what they do, and are not afraid to say so. (I just wish you were doing what you do in my neighborhood.) Second, I have many of the symptoms discussed earlier on this topic. But I have one more very sophisticated diagnostic test I perform. I listen. Every so often, the HD on my Mac Mini squeaks for a few minutes. That can't be good. Generally things are fine. So I assume the contents of my existing internal drive are ok. So, what would you recommend? If I were to create a Carbon Copy Clone on an external drive and, in the future, always boot from that external copy, would there be a performance hit?
