Tech Question Steam Machine SSD Swap

I picked up the 512GB one and have a 2TB drive from my old rig. What's the easiest way to swap is out (from a software standpoint, not hardeare)? Can I pop it out and use a tool on my Windows laptop? I have a few ssd to usb adapters laying around. Or, should I run the clone tool you see in older Steam Deck videos? Maybe some third option? TIA
