Hello! I have a question. I originally bought a 1TB Samsung SSD because I was going to, before I started using TrueNas, use Windows 10 as my storage server OS and knew that Windows tends to take up a lot of space. Obviously, I am using TrueNas and I am thinking of doing a swap to a smaller SSD. Allow me to explain. My Laptop has a 500GB SSD and the server is currently using that 1TB SSD. If I download the TrueNAS Config, swap the Server to the 500GB SSD, reinstall TrueNAS and upload my config, would that be ok without affecting my current Drive Pool and will it see all the drives and configs I've made?

So it is that easy to do? I guess what I could do after backing up the drive would be to reformat it and then use Macrium Reflect to clone my laptop to the 1TB Drive. Thinking out loud but I think I have a solid plan based on what you told me here.
