Replacement hard drive

dilbert
I am new to the UTM software and installed it on a old computer to try it out at home.  I plan to continue using the software and will upgrade the hard drive in the computer to a 256GB SSD.

Do I need to do a new installation of UTM on the SSD and then restore the backup I have made to bring in the settings I have so far, or is there any easier way - similar to ghosting the drive and then removing the old one?  Thanks.

    Thanks, I picked a Samsung 256GB SSD in case I decide to use the drive for something else later, it should be big enough for a clean Windows 7/8/10 install later.

    If I want to upgrade the old motherboard/cpu later, would I also want to do a new install and restore my backup file?  I will be using an Athlon64 x2 4600 with 4GB memory for now.

    Hi, if the NICs change, you may need to re-install to get the UTM to recognize them.

    What about a SSHD drive? Recommended? Or better not use?
