I sucessfully upgraded my Snap 1000 using DOS Mode, here are the procedures.
This is almost similar to a previous posting but the difference is this is
done under DOS and not linux/unix.

Download the cloning program from www.e-mart.com/www the program is clone-n-recover.
this program will allow you to clone your hd using byte-to-byte and sector-to-sector.
the lite version will only allow you to make a single clone and after that the program
will stop running, incase you need to re-run the program again you must override its
protection,to override the "security" of the program, unhide the file called
DOSFIT.DSK using attrib.exe and simply delete it, then run the program again.
read the help file of the program on how to use it.

1. set the snap hd to master and slave for the bigger HD
2. Duplicate the Snap1000 to a bigger HD (40GB that i use). using option 2 of the
clone-n-recover (CUSTOM Cloning).
make your Snap HD as the source and your bigger HD as the target.
(the cloning will take time to complete.) at least an hour.
3. After completing the cloning., attached your newly cloned HD to snap server
boot-up the snap
4. using your browser type in http://yoursnapserver/config/debug
5. on the box type in "config devices format 10000 /reinit
6. Reboot the snap server, the snap should now start formatting the drive

7. using "config devices info" here is what i have now. noticed the size?
it is now 38816752(KB) almost 40GB.
