how to transfer unraid array to a new PC?

[cholzer]

Hi guys!

I have a rather scary task ahead of me. 😬

My current config:
- core i5 system on an Asus mainboard, 8GB
- LSI 9200-8i (IT-Mode)
--- 1x 8GB Ironwolf Parity
--- 4x 6GB Ironwolf Data

- 1x 120GB SSD Cache (no dockers, no VM)

Now I want to only move my Ironwolf HDD's and the unraid USB stick to a new system:
- Xeon E5-2620, Supermicro X10SRi-F, 32GB
- LSI 9300-8i (IT-Mode)
- 1x 500GB SSD Cache

Am I correct that this should basically be "plug and play"?
unraid should boot up and the array should be present (minus the cache SSD which I will replace with a new one)

Anything special that I have to pay attention to? 😅

Thanks in advance!

Should be plug-and-play. I have done migration like that a few times now.

 

Assumption: your HBA is not doing some funky truncation of the HDD serial - which I don't think it does but worth caveating that up front.

Just want to let you know that everything went well!
