I have an old HP Pavillion G7 series laptop, 64-bit processer, Kali Rolling 2016.2 installed as my only OS. My internal HDD has a 320 GB MBR partition. My laptop has legacy BIOS, not UEFI. I have just ordered a new laptop which is the Asus ROG STRIX GL753VD. I bought a 4 TB External HDD because I want to make a bootable clone of my kali installation to use on my new laptop. I have scoured the internet for answers, yet I have not found a way to clone my 320 GB MBR partition to my new 4TB GPT external drive. I am new to this forum and have read the rules, I have tried to provide as much information as I can to resolve this problem. Please excuse me if I have made an error. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Use Ease Us partition manager on windows 10. It will convert MBR To GPT and also clone your hard disk.
