CloneZilla. Command line scary? RescueZilla. Both free, easy to use, and I use them in an enterprise business and have for many years if you want some proof they’re safe and reliable.
Quick note: If it’s your OS drive: Clone it. Shut down. Disconnect source drive before turning back on or you’ll have boot issues and be scratching your head why.
Another vote for clonezilla. I’ve used it 20+ times for this exact thing. One tip: you might want to chkdsk your drive from windows before you clone it. I’ve had that screw up the copy a few times.
