Recently purchased a 1TB sabrent card to upgrade my deck's internal storage. I know I could flash a fresh SteamOS image, but since I have an M2 adapter, it would be great if I could just clone the old drive instead, allowing me to keep the games I've downloaded and other software I've installed.

Does anyone have any suggestions for tools or tips for doing this? Thanks in advance!

The easiest way would be to use gparted from a USB drive. It has an interface to do all this, as well as resize the cloned partition to fill the entire new drive.
