No, you're never too old to Yak'n'Roll if you're too young to die.

Like webfred has shown, you need to copy bak file to other server after full backup.

If this is not just a one-off job there are script options to automate this process. Or are you happy doing it manually?

Three valid methods to move database :
1.detach/attach (fastest)
2.Backup/restore (reliable, specially when you want to keep database online while shifting)
3.Copy Database using SMO (slowest)

you can also create script and manually shift database.
