Hi,
Wich is the best solution to change main HDD on pogoplug, without lose all shared folders.
I don't wan't to recreate all share, and re-sent all e-mail.
A windows copy of HDD is suffisant or not ?
Thank's.
I want say:
-Unplugged HHD from Pogoplug
-Plug it on Computer (windows)
-Plug new HHD on computer to.
-Copy HHD 1 on HHD2
-Plug HHD2 on POGOPLUG and retreive all shared folders, without recreate all.

This seems like it would work if the new HDD is plugged into the same USB port when it's plugged into the pogoplug device. Turn off the pogoplug device (make it disappear), remove the drive, copy to a new drive, plug in the new drive, power up the pogoplug device.
The reason I think this works is that it's not easy to remove shares any other way. They tend to get into the pogoplug system and once a remote user has them, even they can't get rid of them without taking explicit action to do it.
You can always plug the old HDD back in after the copy if this doesn't work and try something different. It will probably work and not require y ou to recreate shares etc.
