Hey everyone! I have a quick question about disc cloning. I want to clone my 4TB drive to a 6TB drive. Are there any issues I should worry about? Specifically, will I be able to resize the partition afterwards, or do I need to find a cloning tool that can handle that automatically? Thanks in advance for your help!

It depends on the software you choose. Some cloning tools do a straightforward 1-to-1 copy, and then you can extend the partition on the new drive afterward. But there are others that will automatically utilize the full size of your new 6TB drive. For example, the last free edition of Macrium Reflect can handle this easily!
You can definitely clone your 4TB drive to a 6TB one without any issues. Once the cloning is done, just resize the volume on your new drive to make full use of that additional space.
Most cloning software will have an option to automatically resize the partition to fit the new drive. In the worst case, you can do a 1:1 clone and then use the extra 2TB as a separate drive letter later on!
