Paragon Hard Disk Manager 16 Advanced and later also have similar feature. So try Google for either a key for this one-off usage or the bootable ISO. The free version doesn't have this feature. The easy way: get AOMEI Partition Assistant Pro or higher edition it can change the volume serial number of exFAT partitions. No, definitely not for a lazy fag like me. The hard way: manually edit the partition header and re-calculate its checksum values. So exFAT is selected.įor FAT32, NTFS, it's easy because there's VolumeID tool from Microsoft Sysinternals (free). NTFS isn't supported because Lenovo doesn't pay Paragon or Tuxera to get their commercial NTFS drivers. But I don't want FAT32 anymore due to its 4GB file size limit as I want to carry large ISO and movie files.
One option is to clone the partition on the old card to the new one: the serial number will stay the same, and FAT32 does work with 128GB cards. Thus, I need to re-allow file access right for some apps, fix some sync jobs, rebuild my music playlists, etc. If I format the card, the volume serial number will be randomly generated, so the location changes.
I want to upgrade the sdcard (32GB in FAT32) in my Android phone to a new 128GB one but I want the mount location to stay the same, i.e /storage/xxxx-xxxx (volume serial number, 8 random hex numbers like 1234-ABCD)
(Note: limited usefulness, only for some specific uses.
