I'm looking to move my operating system from an HDD to a new NVMe drive. What are the best methods for doing this? Any specific tools or steps I should follow?

You can just do a simple copy and paste, but depending on your situation, there might be better methods available. It would help to know more about what you're transferring.
One effective method is to clone your HDD to the NVMe drive. You can create partitions for the NVMe and clone each one over. Just dragging and dropping might not work well for the OS, though.
Was your HDD a boot drive or a storage drive? That can influence the method you'll want to use.
Yes, it was a boot drive.
