Moving Server "C" drive to larger HDD
Hello,
I have a server that its C drive is two 30GB dynmaically formatted drives that are configured in a software Raid 1 config. Unfortunately these drives are filling up fast, and I would like to replace them. I really dont care about putting the mirror back, but how can I image over the contents from the 30GB mirrored drives to a larger HDD? The server is running Windows Server 2003. I have tried that NTBACKUP ASR Backup in the past, but it does not work because of the RAID configuration and Dynamic Disks, or at least I could not get it to work.
Quick notes:
Old config
- two 30GB HDD
- dymanic disks formatting
- software Raid 1
New config
- single 250 GB HDD
- basic disk formatting?
- No raid
Please help, than you!
