I bought a new ssd that is way faster and larger than my current one. What is the best way to transfer everything from my old drive to my new one. Currently running Fedora 38, fine with the command line. If nothing else I will just do a clean install on the new drive and copy over what I need from /home on the old drive.

    I like to do clean installs to un-crust my setups, but I have simply dd’d one disk to another and the only issue I came up with was that the old fstab used UUIDs to refer to the disks, and those changed when I got the new disk, so at first boot nothing would mount. Hahahaha.
