Any Licensing Issues With Cloning to a Larger System Drive

Asking this question in advance to do things right the first time.

I'm upgrading my Windows 11 System drive from 1TB to 4TB. As I've done successfully a couple of times before to upgrade system drives on other systems, I'll be using Crucial/Acronis disk cloning tool.

In this circumstance, I'm concerned with breaking any NI copy protection scheme.

Current configuration:

C: = 1TB System and NI Apps, D: = 4TB NI Libraries and other media

Anyone have any experiences with this, and are there any special pre or post clone procedures to perform?

Thanks!

    Clone should not be an issue as long as the hardware other than the drive remains the same.

    I have done this without issue in the past.
