Yes. Backuppc will basically start over.

Quick question. I currently have a 1TB hard drive that I use to back up 2
computers and although this has worked ok for quite a while I need more
space so I have ordered a 2TB drive. I know I can clone the current 1TB
drive to the new 2TB drive but is it also possible to just mount the new
drive to /var/lib/backuppc and create the necessary directories with the
correct ownership and permissions for backuppc to start backing up my 2
computers? The configuration files are in /etc/backuppc so I am hoping
that just mounting the new drive, creating the directories is all I need to
do. Obviously the pervious backups won’t be on the new drive this way and
backuppc will (hopefully) start again anew.
