Just wondering how you copied the old drive to the new one? If you manually copied the data, the blkids are different, so the boot and fstab information will have to manually be updated, or you will have to use blkid to change the blkids to match.
I generally clone disks to the new one, which also sets the blkids to be identical, so this problem doesn't happen.
I've maintained the disk imaging project G4L since 2004.
The new drive was a dd of the old one several years back missing many updates. I still use the /dev/sdax. The old drive says its been spinning for seven years and developed a bad patch in one of the ntfs partitions. 1465 bad sectors but still passes the self test unless a attempt is made to read certain files.
