Moving from HDD to SSD [SOLVED]
-
Well, I decided to make my pfServer machine into a permanent one.
So I want to go from a normal HDD to a brand new SSD (64GB).
What's the better way? Just backup my configuration then install a fresh copy on SSD, or…?
-
That's the recommended (and best) way. Back up your config.xml, do a fresh install on the new device and install your config.xml. The process works flawlessly.

Okeydokey, will give it a try. 8)
Thanks. :)

Took me less than 5min.
Love you guys! :D
-
Good stuff! Glad it went so well for you.

Does pfSense/FreeBSD automatically trim SSD drives? If not is there a process to take care of this. Maybe a script that can be scheduled via CRON?
