If you would like to retain the SafetyNet folder on the backup volume, don't empty the Trash. This is particularly important if that folder has a lot of data in it and you're migrating to a disk that is smaller than the backup volume. If your backup volume has a "_CCC SafetyNet" folder, you can move that folder to the Trash before using Migration Assistant to avoid copying that folder during a migration.

Migration Assistant and the CCC SafetyNet Once you have migrated your user accounts and applications using Setup Assistant or Migration Assistant, you can continue to use Carbon Copy Cloner to back up your Mac to the same backup volume that you were using for the old Mac. You can migrate directly from a CCC backup of your old Mac. Due to this limitation, we recommend that you use the Setup Assistant application (runs on your Mac's very first boot) or the Migration Assistant application to migrate content from your old Mac to a new Macintosh. Your new Macintosh cannot boot from the older version and build of macOS that is installed on your older Mac, so simply cloning your old Mac onto your new Mac won't work. When you get a new computer from Apple, it has a specific version of macOS installed on it, and further, a hardware-specific "build".

Use Setup Assistant or Migration Assistant to migrate data from a CCC backup to a new Mac If you want to update your cloned volume in the future, simply run the same task (or schedule it so it runs automatically) and CCC will update the backup volume with only the items that have changed since your last backup. Choose a properly-formatted volume from the Destination menu.

Choose the volume that you want to clone from the Source selector.

When you need a complete, simple backup of your entire hard drive: You can then boot a loaner machine from this bootable clone and work from it as if working from your original machine (see the related documentation below for common questions related to running another Mac from your backup). In this situation, it would be ideal to simply copy off the entire contents of your hard drive to an external hard drive - to create a "bootable clone" of your production machine. Also, Apple recommends that you backup your data before sending in a machine for repairs because they are not responsible for lost data. When you get your machine back from repair, you have to deal with locating any modified documents on your loaner computer and copying them to your original computer. This lack of organization can be very frustrating and inhibit your productivity. In the meantime, you not only have to borrow another computer for the duration of the repair, you also don't have your data, applications and work environment exactly as they were on your machine. Suppose your laptop is damaged and you must send it in for repair. There are many different reasons to make an exact clone of your hard drive.
