Cloning ZimaOS from a failing drive to a new one

ZimaOS
1

I am running ZimaOS from a MINIPC. I installed the zimaOS on a 64gb ssd and have 2x4tb nvme that is on RAID 0(I know you are going to tell why no redundancy, I have the redundancy setup on another nas). I wanted to replace the failing 64gb ssd drive. Can I clone the drive using rescuzilla? Will it have any issues after the clone? Do I need to do some settings or something? Will it preserve the RAID 0 drives? TIA

I had an unfortunate experience with the fall of the system disk of ZimaOS. In this forum I asked how to remount the already created raid1 in a freshly installed system and did not receive an answer. The raid is created, but it is not clear where to mount it.

Yes, it is possible to clone the drive normally, the data from the raid is stored in the database and the database will clone over normally when cloning. Also to be on the safe side, you can verify it after cloning first

Also why would you want to replace the drive? Not enough space on the system?

You need to contact us to do this, to be precise, you need to get the previous database file
