filepro license question

[Walter D Vaughan Jr]

Top post 'cause it's Friday afternoon.

You should be able to get your current drive # by typing dir as in

C:\ >dir junk
 Volume in drive C is OS
 Volume Serial Number is A123-D456 (your digits will be different)

Then go to http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/sysinternals/bb897436.aspx
Unzip and then run the Volume ID program with the serial numbers from your
old location ON THE NEW Computer.

If you have hot swap you have a drive array. You still have a single virtual
C drive composed of 2 or more drives in some sort of RAID .

Works like a dream, peaches and crème that is if the licensing is the same
as my single user version 5.0.13.
