Mr. tech is on a distinguished road

Default Copy server to a new HD?

It turns out my 250GB hard drive was no match for my data... I need to upgrade the HD. I am currently using ClarkConnect Community Edition...

Is it fine to make a duplicate of an existing hard drive and just plug the new one in? Is there any further configuring or is it all sweet?

Also, what software do you recommend to make the copy?

Default Re: Copy server to a new HD?

Just put both HDD's in the drive, and copy all the files from one to the other using Windows, Linux, or a Linux Live CD. You could also use GParted, I've heard it can copy partitions from one HDD to another, but I've never used this feature.
