2k3 to 2k8 share migration

azjag

Hey everybody,

I need some advice on the best way to proceed with a migration. We have a really old 2k3 dc at a remote site that I am going to migrate to new hardware running 2k8. Problem is they have. 530gb share drive that hosts the profiles and shared folders that needs to be moved with permissions. What do you recommend as the best way to do this.

File server migration wizard or Robocopy along with manual or registry duplication of the file shares and setting the new server up as an alias of the old.
