I am changing my SQL-Server box in production. Meanwhile, I want to change the databases and system DBs folders. What are the impacts? Any good source for this plan?

Here is what I use:

http://support.microsoft.com/default.aspx?scid=kb;en-us;224071&Product=sql2k

It is important that you do the databases in a particular order. Check that link for details.

The doccument says:
1. Move all user DBs;
2. Move Northwind and Pubs;
3. Move msdb;
4. Move master;
5. move model;
6. move tempdb.

Is it the order I need to follow? Shouldn't Model be before Master?

Whatever the article says is what you should do. I have used it several times now.
