The way I do it when I switch to a new HDD is: This is the case if Hardware-IDs are used to recognize the disks. In any case it might be needed to edit the /etc/fstab file.After that you probably want to resize the partitions as otherwise you cannot take advantage of the extra space.

However if the input disk is rather full it might even be faster. Thus very safe, but not the fastest, if you only use small portions of the disk. This will basically create an image of you disk sda and write it onto sdb (same partition layout etc.) Ofcourse this'll write the whole 120GB as it's file-agnostic. sync synchronizes the offsets if an error has occured.Īdditionally, on Ubuntu and most other Linux systems (since GNU/coreutils 8.24, 2015) you can use status=progress to also print the progress of the process.Higher Chunk sizes usually means higher performance but also more corruption of data if input disk has errors, see here: archwiki on dd It's the size of the chunks dd will read and write in. In case you have some time and want to go safe: $ dd if=/dev/sda of=/dev/sdb bs=64K conv=noerror,sync I/O size (minimum/optimal): 512 bytes / 512 bytesĭisk /dev/sdb doesn't contain a valid partition table Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 512 bytes Partition 2 does not start on physical sector boundary. I/O size (minimum/optimal): 4096 bytes / 4096 bytes Sector size (logical/physical): 512 bytes / 4096 bytes This is the output of "fdisk -l" if that helps: Disk /dev/sda: 120.0 GB, 120034123776 bytesĢ55 heads, 63 sectors/track, 14593 cylinders, total 234441648 sectors I can change the SATA cable so the new drive shows as /dev/sda if necessary. How can I safely move my linux installation to the new drive?

This new drive shows up as /dev/sdb and at the moment it is not formatted or anything (I have literally unpackaged and inserted in my PC right now :P) Since the new 240GB drive has obviously more capacity and is faster (a newer generation than my 120GB one), I want to move my Linux to this new drive. I do not have any other storage media at hand at the moment (e.g. Now I have added another SSD to my computer which is a 240Gb. It is installed on my main SSD drive which is a 120GB one (I had choosen "/" when I installed ubuntu, so I beleive everything should be on this drive).
I have Ubuntu 14.04 with a lot of packages and work related stuff that I am very happy with it.
