  I've just installed WHS2011 on a 250GB to see if I want to use it (instead of SBS Essentials). I've decided to use WHS and want to have 4 2TB hard drives in my server.

  How should I upgrade this original installation hard drive?

  1. Take it out. Insert the 4 2TB drives and do a clean reinstall?

  2. Do a backup of the original drive to a 2TB. Afterwards, replace the smaller drive with the backup.

  Thanks for any suggestions of issues I might overlook.
