I have used dd, clonezilla and macrium reflect to clone from hard drives to SSD and SSD to SSD, for linux and windoze drives. Not every one works in every instance. The source hopefully will have no read errors. If that isn't the case then the errors either need to be fixed or or an option in the clone software needs to be specified. Differences in drive size need to be considered as well as the clone machine. YOU will determine the best way for you. everyone will have their own opinion

I had this Astlinux box running for almost 12 years now. Rock SOLID and thanks to Astlinux. Thanks for all the good and hard work going into this. I am thinking about switching the system to a Supermicro motherboard mini-itx to get the IPMI capabilities. I could just plug in the same SSD drive, boot up and be done with it but I would love to upgrade the SSD as well. That being said what is best way to clone the 2 SSD drives? DD or other method? I have a lot of custom stuff so re-installing the astlinux fresh and transferring manually will be a pain. Cloning is the way to go.
