We currently have FreeBSD but we're running out of hard disk space. How can we get a larger hard disk?
Most people buy a larger hard drive from a computer store, but YMMV. :-) Look at a yellow pages for a local CompUSA or see www.pricewatch.com for one site which provides price quotes. You will almost certainly get better prices if you go online.
Is it possible to put the old hard disk info on the new hard disk?
Sure. FreeBSD comes with software like dump and tar which can backup and restore your data from one drive to the other.
Also, should we upgrade our software to your newer release? Ours is 5 years old.
If nobody has installed any software updates on the system in five years, then yes, you probably should upgrade to a more recent version. It would be interesting to provide a description of your hardware and "uname -a".
Our office is located in southern New Jersey (just outside of Philadelphia). Is there anyone in the area who can help us out with this.
I'd imagine you could find someone in your region to provide FreeBSD sysadmin support on a consulting basis...
