Installing new scsi hdds in NT Machine

by michaelg . Updated 23 years, 11 months ago

I currently have a NT 4.0 server with two scsi drives installed on one controller. One is a 4gig the other an 8gig.
I have purchased two 32gig scsi drives which I wish to install on this server. I want to use one of the 32gig drives as the primary and the other as a mirror. In addition I want to install the older two drives as storage. I will be using one cable and one scsi controller. I have never installed scsi drives on a NT4.0 machine. Can I just install the new drives partion them NTFS then do a xcopy to move over the OS from the 4gig drive to one new one and then copy the logical drives from the 8gig, and mirror first 32gig drive with all data already moved over? Any advice will be appreciated. If my thinking is totally wrong, please tell me so. I do not want to mess this up. I am not an MCSE as you can tell.
Thanks
