After upgrading MBP2012 to SSD

[Sertan]

Dear All Experts,

Please kindly advice me what is the next step after i upgraded my MBP2012 to dual drive.

Currently the SSD is running OSX Yosemite Version 10.10.5 and the old HDD is already formatted but why is there used 446.5 MB on disk when there no files at all?

1) So far no issues at all after cloning to SSD, how do i do an test to be sure?

2) Do i upgrade the OSX to El Captian now and format the old HDD again or format first than upgrade?

3) Intend to use the old HDD as Time Machine backup, is it advisable to partition and what is the proportion?

4) When boot up is still not as fast as expected is it normal?

Thanks All Experts In Advance! God Bless!

1) which cloning software did you use? most will have "verify" too but it if works, its probably ok

2) download from the appstore. then you can either upgrade from the applications or copy to a usb boot and fresh install.

3) doesn't matter as long as enough space to do it

4) fresh install will be faster than cloning usually
