I have a WD SN580 1 TB SSD as my boot drive with Win 11. I'm getting a WD SN770 2 TB SSD. I want to clone the 1 TB drive to the 2 TB drive and make it my boot drive with my Win 11 on it. I see that WD has a program called Acronis True Image. Will this work to clone the drives? Will it make the 2 TB drive bootable and have all 2 TB available? Is there something else you guys suggest for a program? Is there any step by step you guys have used? Help appreciated.
 
I would put your new drive in the main slot first and move your old drive to the secondary slot and then clone it off a bootable media

This should be done (fastest drive in fastest socket), but isn't necessary for cloning purposes (right?).

The 2 TB SSD will be in the fastest slot. When I built the system, I didn't put the 1 TB in the fastest slot.

Thanks all
