swap eMMC advice - jceaser - 10-23-2025

I have a 64 G eMMC that came with my Pinebook pro and I decided to upgrade to 128. I got a new one here from pine64 and also the USB adapter. My plan was to use the USB adapter with the 128 G drive and do a dd copy from the existing drive to the new one, then swap them out. I understand that there may be some UUIDs or some other values I will need to change, but before I start messing around and killing a weekend I thought I would ask around and see if my general plan is sound.

Any problems I should look out for or other friendly advice anyone wants to give?

(I also got the audio-serial adapter to debug things when it DOES go wrong)
