Last time I tried cloning a drive it failed miserably and I was stuck doing everything manually and took forever

    Samsung Data Migration if you’re using a Samsung drive.

    Edit: it seems that it works without a Samsung drive too. I have used it in the past for my boot disk, worked perfectly.

      Seconded. I just used it this weekend to go from a 1TB drive to 2TB drive on a system with a single NVMe slot. Connected new NVMe in an enclosure, ran the copy, and the system shut down when done, I physically swapped the new drive in and it booted first try.

      It worked so well I started using it for all my hds even if they weren’t Samsung. It seems to work regardless of the manufacturer.
