currently, i have a dual E5-2699V4 and 128TB of data.
also i want to upgrade to dual Xeon 8385P, but I don't want to buy any more hard drives.
so can i just pull all the hard drives and the system hard drive and then install it on the new server to use, is that possible?

if not possible... is there any way to shift all HDD to new machine with out move data to a temp drive?

The pool disks are portable, assuming same TrueNAS version, (or later on the newer server).

Others might know if saving the configuration, exporting the pool is all you need to do on the old server.

One note, restoring the configuration on the new server might have problems with the network interface. So you might need to get on the console to fix it. Trivial work.
