denywinarto Posted January 19, 2019 Share Posted January 19, 2019 Can't seem to find any way to do this. My drives are mounted to 20ish ntfs mount folders, and now i want to migrate to another machine with better specs. The idea is just to swap the sas card and then i hope i dont have to remount the drives again because i want to minimize downtime. Is there anyway to copy these mount folders to the new machine? Or do i have to recreate and re-mount them again one by one? Cause when i tried to copy them, its actually copying the entire drive... Edit : Well i found out the registry location, HKEY_CURRENT_USER\SOFTWARE\Microsoft\Windows\CurrentVersion\Explorer\MountPoints2\CPC\LOCALMOF\ So just export and import this key?

0 Christopher (Drashna) Posted January 31, 2019 Share Posted January 31, 2019 Unfortunately, you'll probably still have to mount the drives again. The folder structure needs to exist on the destination system. And I believe there is info in the file system itself that is required too Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
0 denywinarto Posted February 12, 2019 Author Share Posted February 12, 2019 Yeah i just figured it out myself, it didn't work even with registry imported, This might take some time if i fill up all 60 drives someday..
