Yeah exactly. I had to get my work MacBook repaired a few times last year and since I’m working from home I just mirrored the internal ssd to the t5 and booted from it on my private Mac.
This way I kept all the company settings and programs working in a way that a time machine restore couldn’t do.
Works just the way you would expect from an internal ssd and switching takes less than two minutes if necessary
- ArchOversight 6y agoMy companies MDM software would freak out if I did that. So much of it is tied to the specific serial number of the machine, as well as various baked in management of push notifications for profile updates and the like being tied to the device itself through Apple.
- aloer 6y agoYeah I could only do that because it’s essentially a BYOD setup. Both MacBooks are mine and there is no company MDM involved. Just some software installed & configured by others that would be quite annoying to restore via time machine
