Duplicating old micro-sd card to new larger one

[JDSX]

I'm thinking of upgrading to a larger micro-sd card. I have apps and other stuff on my current card and would like to keep everything intact and make the transition seamless. Are there any caveats to just doing a full xcopy from current card to pc then back to new card?

I just went from 2GB to 8GB recently and had no problems. I skipped the temporary files ("FilesToDelete" folder, etc.) and just copied the folders I had created / were created when I installed software.

Working just great now, so no probs here =)

That's good to know, thanks. I'm debating whether to wait for the step after 8gb or not.

I did this just last night.
I started by turning off the phone (hold power down until you get a warning about losing information - it's a legacy warning, so hit ok.) That way the phone is not looking for a storage disk.
Then I took the micro-sd out of the phone and put it into a SD converter, and then into a USB reader and attached to my computer. MAKE SURE you have "see invisibles" turned on, as there was at least one invisible folder there. I copied everything out into a storage folder on my hd.
Then I told the computer to safely remove the device, changed the smaller for the larger card, put it back in, and copied everything in the storage folder into the new disk.
Put the new disk into the phone, and start it back up.
I had a problem with my Wizard where the disk popped out of its own accord, and the system needed to store data on the disk, so it made a "storage disk" folder on itself, and my data got out of synch until I copied everything out of the fake disk and deleted it. Thus the turning off of the phone.
