Add more HDD

Hi,
You can install one more HDD in system and create Partition/FileSystem on that.
fdisk /dev/hdb
press m for help, n for create partition, t for changing FileSystem
Then after you can mount that HDD partition on some temperory location.
mount -t ext3 /dev/hdb1 /mnt/tmp

copy all of your existing /var/www content to /mnt/tmp. Example
cp -dpRf /var/www/* /mnt/tmp
After "successful" copy make sure to "sync" then, you can remove the contents of /var/www
To test you can unmount /mnt/tmp and mount /dev/hdb1 partition to /var/www location.
Finally create this mount point entry in /etc/fstab file

MSDOSFS(5)						      BSD File Formats Manual							MSDOSFS(5)

NAME
msdosfs -- MS-DOS file system SYNOPSIS
options MSDOSFS DESCRIPTION
The msdosfs driver will permit the FreeBSD kernel to read and write MS-DOS based file systems. The most common usage follows: mount -t msdosfs /dev/ada0sN /mnt where N is the partition number and /mnt is a mount point. Some users tend to create a /dos directory for msdosfs mount points. This helps to keep better track of the file system, and make it more easily accessible. It is possible to define an entry in /etc/fstab that looks similar to: /dev/ada0sN /dos msdosfs rw 0 0 This will mount an MS-DOS based partition at the /dos mount point during system boot. Using /mnt as a permanent mount point is not advised as its intention has always been to be a temporary mount point for floppy and ZIP disks. See hier(7) for more information on FreeBSD direc- tory layout. SEE ALSO
