I recently cloned my OS from a 256GB SSD to a new 500GB SSD. The cloning process resulted in my new SSD being partitioned as follows: a 100MB EFI system partition, a 237.73GB C: drive, a 642MB recovery partition, and finally, there's 227.29GB of unallocated space. I'm not sure how to proceed from here. Is it possible to expand my C: drive into this unallocated space?

It would help if you shared a screenshot of your disk management layout, as it's easier to understand what's going on visually. From what I know, most cloning tools should resize the partition to use the whole drive, but it sounds like yours didn't work that way.
You'll need to delete or move the recovery partition if you want to use that unallocated space to expand your C: drive. Expanding works only with space that's directly to the right of the partition. Just keep in mind that deleting the recovery partition could have consequences for system recovery options.
