Best way to clone a Synology drive? (alien.top)

I want to upgrade the storage in my DS220+ NAS , but I'm not sure of the best way to do it. I've simply placed in another drive before and copied over important data (Plex app data, media, etc), but now I have Docker instances and other apps I want to copy over, how would I do this? I'm also aware of things like the copy button, migration assistant and the fact that I can't read the drive on Windows (at least for free), so what's the best way to upgrade storage without losing anything?

Do you only have one drive in it right now?
