Topic: Bitcoin -qt move Blockchain (Read 1076 times)
You shouldn't have to reindex it. It should be possible to simply copy over the \Bitcoin folder and add the -datadir= command to your shortcut.
I also wonder why I need to reindex it.
I changed nothing it's a 1:1 copy

I don't think reindex should take that much time i mean it's exactly like downloading the block chain again from peers,
except the blocks already on disk are used. So out of luck about that.
Regarding the change direction you start the bitcoin client/server with this - just add
Regarding mac you should look at Data & directory Mac.

Hey there.
Today I moved my hole \AppData\Roaming\Bitcoin folder to my NAS Server. That I dont need to download the hole Blockchain if e.g. the system craches.
I startet the Bitcoin Core with -datadir=\\[...]\Bitcoin\
After thet, he want to reload the Blockchain, I Quit it and start it with -reindex
But this would take days.
Isnt there any other way?
And is it possible to have a client on the PC and on the MAC which use this NAS-folder togehter? Of course not at the same time.
Greetings
