Replace SD-Card with new one - Reactivation needed?

Post by MeteoSheeva »

Hello there,

I am planning to replace my probably non-SLC-Card (Transcend 8GB Extreme-Speed SDHC TS8GBSDHC10) with an SLC-card (integral Endurance 8GB SDHC INSDH8G10-ENDU).
So my plan is to mirror the content of the old card to the new card by using GParted.

Is there a kind of reactivation needed after that? If so how do I do that?

Kind regards

not sure if you need to renew activation with only a new disk installed,
but you can always create a new key with that online tool >>>>

SD card change does also change system ID. Therefore you need to transfer activation code with the link given above. Make sure to pick the right scenario.

Thank you for your replies.

I just mirrored the content from the old card to the new card and reactivated my Meteohub-installation.
It seems to be working fine.

Old:

Code: Select all

Medium:	00000 11/2010 0x7555f16e
Swap:	0MB von 131MB belegt (0%)
System:	653MB von 838MB belegt (78%)
Daten:	318MB von 6555MB belegt (4%)
New:

Code: Select all

Medium:	SD08G 03/2010 0xc70bed17
Swap:	0MB von 131MB belegt (0%)
System:	653MB von 839MB belegt (77%)
Daten:	317MB von 6781MB belegt (4%)
@Boris
With one of the last updates you added the information about the SD-Card (Medium:).
Can you perhaps explain what is the meaning of these three values?
