Moving Games partition to a new drive: reinstall STO?

I'm moving my Games folder to a new hard drive. I know that with some games like World of Warcraft I can just copy them right over to a new location and not worry. Is STO the same or will I have to do a fresh installation?

    Run the installer, then copy the pigg files across.

    What are the "pigg" files?

    he means the contents of the /live/piggs folder over to the /live/piggs folder on the new drive

    Gotcha.

    I'm copying the entire installation folder over and the Piggs folder is going with it, so that shouldn't be a problem. :)

    Thank you for the replies.:)

    If the new drive had the same drive letter, you wouldn't have to do anything...
