Hello, IMHO the easiest way is to resize source disk partition(s) to minimum (using gparted), clone drive with expert option: skip destination drive size and after cloning resize partitions again to match new disk size. Be sure that source disk has proper aligment - first partition should begin @ 1st MiB (1024Bx1024B). Any dividable value by 4096B will be fine.
