Cloning M.2 with a Single M.2 Slot

I want to upgrade my M.2 NVMe SSD. However, I only have one M.2 slot on my computer, and I don't have an adapter. Is cloning M.2 with a single M.2 slot possible? If so, I'd really appreciate any advice.

For laptops with only one M.2 slot, the first method is to use the bootable cloning tool and an external USB drive to clone a bootable hard disk. You start the cloning tool, create a drive image to HDD, then shut down your PC, replace the M.2 SSD with a larger one, boot again into the cloning tool and copy the drive image from HDD to the new drive.

Another available method is to use a USB to M.2 SSD converter. You can use the adapter to connect the M.2 SSD to your computer via the USB interface.

Since you have no adapter, only the first method is available. EaseUS Disk Copy can help you finish the job well!
