You should be able to add memory easily, just as you would in a PC. The best way to move your data to a new harddrive would be to install the new one and get it recognized by the system. Create your filesystems on it, and then use tar to copy the data. Something like:


(cd / && tar cvf - . ) | (cd /new_mount && tar xvfp -)

where /new_mount has your new root filesystem mounted on it.


You could also use a backup tape to write the data to the new hard disk.
