Upgrade to macOS Big Sur

Make sure you’re ready to upgrade. Before you upgrade, we recommend that you back up your Mac. If your Mac is running OS X Mavericks 10.9 or later, you can upgrade directly to macOS Big Sur. You’ll need the following: OS X 10.9 or later; 4GB of memory; 35.5GB of available storage on macOS Sierra or later. Some features require an Apple ID. The classic OS X 10.12, or rather macOS upgrade, introduced tons of features anyone would still want on their Mac. Because, it's well-tested and secure.
