Upgrading SSD in elitedesk g2 800

ZebraGoose@sh.itjust.works to Selfhosted@lemmy.world – 13 points –

Okay so im planning to buy a new m2 ssd for my elitedesk. I got a 256 gb m2 ssd today but it’s starting to fill up.

But I’m wondering if I just can get a new one and transfer everything from the old ssd to the new one?

I’m using proxmox now. Is there anything I need to consider?

They have devices that will clone one disk to another. I did this for my kids computer to increase the drive size without having to reload all of his apps.

Oh cool. What device was that?

If your elitedesk can fit two drives and has a USB slot, honestly just a flash drive with a bootable Linux image. The 'dd' command has the capability to copy one drive to another
