Mine’s about a yr newer than yours. Might try it. Just wish there was a way to revert if needed.
“...Mine’s about a yr newer than yours. Might try it. Just wish there was a way to revert if needed....”
I run a backup with Carbon Copy Cloner before I do any update and save it to an external drive. IF, for any reason, I needed to revert back, I can restore to my previous backup. I’ve never actually had to do it...at least not so far, but I believe it would work if I needed to.
FWIW, my machine is a 27” iMac 2.93 Ghz I7 w/32gb of ram and an updated 2TB hard drive. I’ve had no issues with High Sierra 10.13.2 on this older machine, but like I said, I’m not compiling mountains of hard core raw computer data either...just email, web browsing and real-time streaming of stock data. However, on any given weekday while monitoring the stock markets, I’ll have as many as 7 desktops open at any one given time. I have an another external Asus 27” monitor in vertical mode tied on as well. To date, I’ve not had any stability issues with the OSX.
