Using DD we really do not kow what is missing if any thing. But we have had reports that some help files were missing. Just precautionary. Or copy the whold drive but that takes way too long.

An easier way is to move one of the 805 drives over to the 803 - 2200 (master), remove both 803's. As long has it is in the master (Top) position it should boot from it. Then I would wipe the mbr on the older 803's and reinstall, and let the snap do the setup. Should not loose any thing this way.

The FAQ's has prcedures for doing this.
