        High BuckSkin,
<br><br>Which system are you using? If it's Linux, you should disconnect the old
<br>harddisk and use the same mountpoint for the new one. In case you  used
<br>the (semi-)automatic mount, which is provided by many graphical
<br>interfaces like kde, it's more complicated.

<div class="m_-2769398321888825546shrinkable-quote"><div class='shrinkable-quote'><br>> I looked for my answer in the "Handbook" but could not find it.
<br>> 
<br>> I have many "collections" in DigiKam that are all on an external hard-drive
<br>> that has become questionable in it's integrity; thus, I have copied all of
<br>> my image files to a new drive.
<br>> 
<br>> The old drive still remains connected because there are many other things
<br>> besides pictures stored on it.
<br>> 
<br>> How do I disassociate Digikam from the old drive and point DigiKam to the
<br>> new drive without having to add all of my collections all over again ? 
<br>> 
<br>> I looked in "settings" for a means to accomplish this, but if the ability is
<br>> there I could not understand the terminology.
<br>> 
<br>> Thanks for reading.
