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?

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
