![]() ![]() It is possible directly create a bootable Big volume with CCC from its version 5.1.23 released at the end of November. It can, of course, make a full backup, or 'clone' in moments, you can completely duplicate your boot drive to another drive, partition, or image file. Or at least he faced the same complications brought on by Catalina and then Big Sur but he’s doing better. SuperDuper is the most advanced, yet easy to use disk copying program available for macOS. Its main competitor Carbon Copy Cloner does not know these pangs. ![]() If I understand cloning correctly, with Monterey the system files may well be backed up to an ext DD but whenever that backup is updated only the Data files will actually be updated and not the system files. But in this case, warns the developer, it will be necessary to delete the system partition on this volume in order to be able to resume a cycle of data backups with SuperDuper! Recent developments in macOS have given rise to new gymnastics … I have created a Backup using SuperDuper and it does appear in the Startup Disk in Preferences. To make this external backup bootable, you can install a system after the fact.

SuperDuper! does not know how to work with this configuration. And with Big Sur, Apple has added encryption and a signature to the system partition. The system and user data are separated and housed in two different logical spaces. The new macOS has completed an evolution that appeared with Catalina. I just checked the site and it seems they have a Catalina version. CCC is more power-user's kind of cloning software (and costs more). In the current situation, SuperDuper! 3.3.1 is not able to make a bootable clone of a Mac (Intel, for M1s is something else) upgraded to macOS Big Sur. SuperDuper still has a bit of the shareware feel to it (and is cheaper), plus I only see mention of beta stage for Catalina.
