I am currently running Fedora 38 on an old Intel Mac Mini. It’s time to upgrade to a new computer. I’d like to keep the hard drive (SSD) and just put it into the new machine. To do this, would I have to stick with intel for my new machine or would it also be possible to put the SSD into an AMD machine and have everything work properly?
Yes, I’d like to swap the drive which has the OS on it.
Either way, make sure you have backups (3-2-1 backups if possible) before swapping the hardware. If it fails to boot and there is some change to the drive contents during boot, putting it back in the original system isn’t guaranteed to work.
