XPS 8930, partition resize advice

I have just successfully cloned a Western Digtal 250 Mb sata SSD disk to a Samsung 970 Evo plus 500 Mb NVMe ssd disk using Macrium Reflect Free on an XPS 8930.

I thought I could re-size the partitions using Macrium but it looks like this functionality is not available in this version.  The paid for version is circa £50 so would rather avoid spending that if possible. Many of the other free utilities for this don’t seem allow re-sizing either as far as I could tell, eg EaseUs.

So my queries are:

  • What is the easiest way to resize – is W10 Disk Manager straight forward, given you need adjoining unallocated space?
  • Should I increase all partitions in the same proportions, ie double, or leave some and just increase others. Partitions are shown below

Advice or pointers to other threads with tips appreciated.

Thanks
