I'm finally running out of space on a 128GB ssd on a notebook (asus N501VW) and am thinking of replacing it with a larger, 500GB, drive.
The setup:
- 1 notebook (N501VW) running Win 10 (x64)
- 3 drives (128GB ssd (M2) (C:), 1TB hdd (D:), 500GB ssd (M2))
128GB:

500GB:
not purchased as of yet
The plan:
- Boot from a Linux (e.g. ubuntu) usb image
- Copy C: into D: (D: still has space)
- Shutdown, replace C: with larger ssd
- Boot (again) from usb
- Copy C: from D: into larger ssd
- Shutdown; boot from larger ssd
- If all's well, clear former C: from D:
The bad:
- Will a dd format the new ssd entirely upon copy (from D: to 500GB)?
- If not how much of 500GB will be usable?
- Since 128GB is small, there are many simlinks to D:. Will they be affected upon copy?
- Is this even the right way of doing this?

- No. It will not format your new ssd properly. You will need to resize the partition on the new drive. The partition table will also probably be a little messed up but a utility like gparted should be able to easily fix it.
- Only 128GB will be available until you resize the partition.
- I dont see why this would be a problem.
- It seems reasonable to me. I did the exact same thing to replace a hard drive with an ssd.
