My new Crucial MX500 1TB 3D NAND SDD 2.5" drive should arrive  
by Thursday.

In the past, I have generally either cloned a same-size hdd to  
another hdd or used images.

But what is the procedure y'all would recommend for cloning an  
HDD that has two partions (C and H) to a larger SSD?

The original system is XP.

I'm reading that perhaps Macrium Reflect 8 could do it.

Another product called AOMEI claims to do the same, but  
expanding a partition requires a pay version of the program.
But it sounds to be the easiest to use.

But there are caveats in both wrt to "bootable" partitions.

What experiences have y'all had doing this?  And what tools  
have you used for cloning an XP OS?

I'm somewhat familiar with some linux rescue disk software that  
I could probably use for prepping the destination SSD prior to  
the cloning.  But I would rather like to stick to one tool that  
can do all necessary steps.
