Server hard drive

A few weeks ago, I replaced the 1 TB drive in my server with a 4 TB one.

I was running out of space on the old one.
With the new drive in place, I added a lot of my saved TV series.

I'm also glad I replaced the hard drive before it failed.
That's a lot less stressful.
And I also know that if it doesn't work, I can put the old drive back in.

To transfer the data, I plugged both drives with SATA cables and copied the data from one to the other.

It was also a big upgrade.
The old one was running Ubuntu Server 16.04 and the new one runs Ubuntu Server 22.04.

The transfer took a few hours.

Of course, a few of my PHP scripts stopped working (I was going from PHP 7.* to PHP 8.1).
