[ale] dd vs clonezilla to replace hard drive

[Narahari Lakshminarayana]

Friends:

I bought a new SSD drive of the size 512GB the inland brand from
Microcenter.
I want to use that to replace my current laptop's 160 GB NON-SSD drive.

Is it a good idea to use Clonezilla to make an img file of the current disk
and restore to the new SSD ?

OR

Is it faster and best to run the dd command and replicate bit-by-bit of the
current drive to the new SSD drive ?

Please advise.
