Hello,
I just wanted to leave a message saying thank you to all who have posted information on modifying snap servers to accommodate larger drives. I have been looking for this information for a long time and this was the shining star find. I purchased a new snap server 1100 from ebay with a puny 80gb drive, and after following the helpful hints from previous posters, I was able to slap a nice 400gb seagate into it with absolutely 0 problems! Once again, thank you very much.
Oh, and here is how I did it in case that would help anyone else.
Made the digital dolly boot cd.
Removed snap HD and set it as master.
Set new larger drive as slave.
Connected them into my PC.
Booted from DD cd.
Chose copy raw data/partition.
Selected master as source, slave as destination.
Let it copy 3% of 80gb (2.4GB), then turned off PC.
Set the new drive as master and slapped it into the snap.
Logged into
http://snapserver/config/debug and gave it the:
"config devices format 10000 /reinit" command.
Rebooted the snap and waited for the format.
Was greeted with a pleasing drive space of 377GB (lost quite a bit to format waste but oh well)
Thats it. Thanks again!
