Transferring database to a different hard drive

Hey everyone, My hard drive's getting pretty full. I feel like I know how to transfer the database to a new hard drive, but I'm not quite sure how to get Bitcoin Core to start saving the new blocks to the new location where I've moved everything. Any tips? Appreciate it!

Depends on how you initially set the original data directory and if you're using the GUI or daemon. For the GUI, start bitcoin-qt with --choosedatadir arg and it will let you set a new data directory which should be where you copied the entire "Bitcoin" folder. Using command line args differs per OS so please include more info on your setup. For the daemon, just change where the "datadir" arg/setting is pointing to. On a side note: I suggest you to 'copy' the datadir first instead of 'move' so the original directory would act as a backup in case the new datadir fails. Delete the original only once the new datadir is working stable.

Many thanks.
