How do I add a new disk to an existing Linux server?
What I would do is:
- make a good backup of your server.
- sudo su (or login as root).
- mount the new drive (with the correct fstab entry: UUID=[drive uuid] /home_new ext4 defaults 0 0) to /home_new.
- sync the old home folder to the new home folder: rsync -av /home/ /home_new/.
- rename the old home folder: mv /home /home_old.
