Migrating database to a new hard drive

I'm having trouble with my digikam 3.5.0 database. I had a hard drive
failure and had to move all data to a new disk. When I open Digikam,
it looks for albums based on the old disk's UUID. I know I have to
change the UUID references in the digikam4.db file, and I've been
using this command to do it:
UPDATE AlbumRoots SET identifier = 'volumeid:?uuid = new_uuid'
WHERE identifier = 'volumeid:?uuid = old_uuid';
The command does not give an error, but Digikam afterwards still gives
me the warning about the albums being gone. Is the command correct?
What am I missing? Should the UUID be typed with or without dashes?
Do I have the syntax correct? Spaces before and after the equals
signs, etc?
Thank you all.
