[Help] migrate TOS 6.0 To M2-SSD  [SOLVED]

Post by KeysDz »

I have a F2-423 with two Hard drives (JBOD) both system drives with 8gig partitions. I would like to migrate tos 6.0.770 from one hard drive to a m2 SSD and boot from this drive. One M2 drive operation system and the other M2 drive a Hyper Cache. Is this possible and how to do it without losing Data.

you can easily change the system drive

when you look at your disks in control panel, one of the tabs at the top is System Disk, there you can migrate it to your new M2, i did this recently with my F2-423, as it was originally using a standard disk, but found the Virtual Box server running a bit slow, so migrated it to the M2 and now its responsively quick

Hello! You can go to Control Panel > Storage Management > Disk > System Disk, use the "Migrate System Disk" function, select your two HDDs as the source disks, and select the M.2 you want to use as the system disk as the target disk to complete the process. This will not affect the JBOD storage pool on your two HDDs and can successfully migrate the system to the M.2.
