I'm about to replace my boot drive. The old drive is an old HDD that is starting to give SMART warnings. So I bought a new SSD to replace it. My plan is:
1) Backup the config
2) Shutdown FreeNAS machine and disconnect old boot drive (HDD).
3) Connect new boot drive (SSD)
4) Do a fresh install of FreeNAS on new SSD
5) Restore the config file.
Is swapping out the old boot drive for the new really going to be that easy or am I missing something?
