Anyone have a good tutorial on migrating an os from an SSD to an M.2? (self.techsupport)

As the title suggests, I've got an old 500gb SSD running my main OS on my desktop, and I just purchased a 2tb m2 drive and want to migrate over without a big headache.

Does anyone have any guides that they recommend to do this? I haven't tried to migrate an OS in probably a decade, I just usually do a fresh install, but I no longer want to do that as my time/files are worth more to me now.

Thanks!

This is what I used for a similar switch as OP and it worked well.
