I'm comfortable adding new disks to an existing system but I'm not sure the best course of action to replace a drive. I'm going to replace wd0 (my boot drive) because it appears to be failing. Here is what I thought I'd do: 1. Add the disk to the existing system 2. Copy the contents of wd0 to the new disk 3. Set the new disk to boot (not sure how to do this) Is this the correct course of action? Can anyone provide me with a some advice on this?
