And the cloning attempt failed.

You can't extend the main partition with Disk Management in that state. Disk management will only allow you to extend partitions if there's unallocated space to the right, and the recovery partition is blocking the main partition.

I attempted to follow his instructions and restarted, but now I’m encountering a bootmgr error. The 480GB SSD isn’t appearing in the disk manager anymore, which might mean the advice didn’t work.

Disk cloning offers many practical applications, especially for someone who enjoys gaming and has limited storage. When done correctly, it performs well without issues. I used cloning during an SSD upgrade and avoided similar problems. Few resources highlight such challenges.

It might be okay to swap drives, but with SSDs it's a serious concern, particularly when they differ in size.

It doesn't matter whether it's an SSD. HDD to SSD clones function perfectly fine.

What do SSDs with different storage sizes offer?

The partition issue is resolved. To clone the disk without repeating the problem, use a method that ensures a clean copy—like using a tool that creates a fresh image or verifies the disk state before cloning.
