When 1TB ones are £1 then I'll get one, will be by 2030 I'm hoping.

I've got the 64gb version of this at the moment but want a bigger one as my main drive. Is there a way of cloning my 64gb one onto this 256gb one so i can just swap them over rather than having to reinstall windows onto the new drive?
UPDATE: The power of Google is great and told me I can clone. Just bought one now, thanks OP

If you have a spare drive, just use Windows backup.

Yes you can clone easily, make sure your cloning software addresses the partition alignment correctly.

Cloning is simpler and a lot faster.

Showing £194 for me too.
Read this... if you can wait, do so for the next few months - I think it will be worth it.
I personally want the 256GB one - It's the only practical size for me, I think £150 is neither here nor there, expecting to hit this price in the coming months.
