Hello Everyone,
The actual hard drive where Sage 50 data resides, is failing. Therefore I need to move or copy Sage 50 database "Company" to a different hard drive located on the same server computer. What would be the best way of achieving that? I read about creating a backup from inside sage 50, then restoring it as a new company, the problem is that it doesn't let me create a new directory on a different hard drive that way. Can I just copy the whole "peachtreedata" which has company folders inside it, from one hard drive to the other? right click copy and paste, or Robocopy?
Or, do I have to uninstall sage 50 on the server, then reinstall it and right there specify new data folder on a different hard drive. Then create a new blank company and restore using (previously backed up file) or just point it to the "Copied" location having previously copied the "peachtreedata' folder.
What should be the recommended procedure, more safe with better data integrity? Any feedback? Other options? Anything?
Please, Anyone? What is a good way of moving data files from one hard drive to another? Reinstallation required or not? If you have any info, please share.
Very much Appreciated!
