Sachin Posted March 4, 2021 Share Posted March 4, 2021 (edited) Hi, I'm running unraid using a 500GB SSD along with 10TB HDD as unassigned drive. The setup is close to perfect for my requirement. Now I would like to remove SSD and replace it with a 14 TB HDD in its place. I need some help in figuring out safest way to migrate all the data from SDD to HDD and make it the primary array device. Below is my structure. If i need to copy folders into new HDD(/mnt/disks/WDC*), which specific folders do i need to copy? or do i need to copy everything in / into new HDD? is there any specific process after copy or can i replace SDD with HDD in the array and reboot the system. Thanks in advance! root@tower:/# tree -L 1 . ├── bin ├── boot ├── dev ├── etc ├── home ├── hugetlbfs ├── init -> /sbin/init ├── lib ├── lib64 ├── mnt ├── opt ├── proc ├── root ├── run ├── sbin ├── sys ├── tmp ├── usr └── var root@tower:/# tree -L 2 /mnt/ /mnt/ ├── disk1 │ ├── DataShare │ ├── Download │ ├── SHARE │ ├── appdata │ ├── domains │ ├── isos │ ├── pure-ftpd │ └── system ├── disks │ ├── EasyStore │ └── WDC_WD140EDFZ-11A0VA0_9LG7XZ4A ├── remotes └── user ├── DataShare ├── Download ├── SHARE ├── appdata ├── domains ├── isos ├── pure-ftpd └── system Edited March 4, 2021 by Sachin added array screenshot Quote Link to comment
JorgeB Posted March 5, 2021 Share Posted March 5, 2021 Copy everything from disk1 to the new disk, files can't be open, so first disable all services using it, like docker, VM, etc. Quote Link to comment
