Server Version#: 1.31.0.6654
Player Version#: Version 4.102.1
I have a Plex server on which I moved the Plex installation from the system drive (C) to another drive (J) a few years ago. Now, I want to replace that J drive.
If I copy all of the files from the J drive to my new drive (V) and then add the V drive to the system and change its drive letter to J, should I expect that alone will work seamlessly, or are there other steps I should be considering?
Thanks.
If paths remain the same, you shouldn’t need any further steps.
Just make sure the server is stopped while doing the drive switch/replacement.
Yeah. Thanks. Will do!
You may want to use the robocopy command line tool, instead of the graphical user interface to perform the copy process.
Biggest advantage: you can abort and resume the process safely.
robocopy "J:\plexdata" "V:\plexdata" /MIR
should do the trick.
(Don’t forget that the target disk must be formatted with the NTFS file system.)
I use Goodsync for my data transfers, but thanks for the tip!
