If you just want to move files in the old fashion way and not entire AppVM in the sense that the AppVMs should remain in the original drive, in other words, if you want to be able to remove the other hard drive from the system and will useit mainly for storage of large files,
then the answers are more questions: is your qubes system encrypted? do you need the files to be encrypted? If you are willing to accept common knowledge as advice, then yes, you shall encrypt everything every time, unless there are reasons not to. For example, encrypted disks will make data unavailable to data recovery for an obvious reason. If the data is not sensitive and it should remain forever recoverable, that could be a reason not to encrypt data, but that is one exception of the above rule. Anyway, if this is your case, it should be simple as attaching the disk into any AppVM and running the GNOME Disks application. I'm not sure what's the name of that in the KDE and XFCE desktops, but i know that if you call it via terminal, it's gnome-disks. >From there it should be straightforward, but there is this tutorial in the Tails website if you want: https://tails.boum.org/doc/encryption_and_privacy/encrypted_volumes/index.en.html -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "qubes-users" group.
