I've searched extensively but couldn't find a clear solution to my problem (using Rsync doesn't work in my case: viewtopic.php?f=25&t=367&p=1448&hilit=r ... ngle#p1448)
I have a single 4 TB HDD in slot #1 (storage pool 1#) and a single 500 GB HHD in slot #2 (storage pool #2). I want to replace the 4 TB with an 8 TB then remove the 500 Go completely.
I've read in several posts that people use cp in shell mode to copy one disk to another; is it what I need to do? If so:
- Do I need to delete the storage pool #2 before installing the new disk in slot #2? (I've already copied the content of the 500 GB to the 4 To already). Will this remove everything from the disk?
- Will the new 8 TB disk become the main disk after I've removed the old 4 TB disk? (meaning installed apps will run without data loss)
- Can I move the new disk into slot #1 after shutdown?
