How and how to replicate an existing system to a new hard drive?

Imagine that we have a Microsoft Hyper-V server 2012 R2, on which several Windows Server 2012 R2 and several CentOS 7 are running. The whole thing is located on 1 hard drive, for example, WD Black.
Question: how and how to replicate an existing system to a new WD Re? Stopping the system is allowed.

dd if=/dev/sdb of=/dev/sdc , where sdb - which disk to copy, sdc - where to copy. You can copy to a file, instead of / dev / sdb specify the path to the file. This file can then be compressed with gzip. It's just an option.

Are we talking about cloning a host system or virtual systems?
In the case of a host system, no cloning is necessary. Raise a new server and migrate virtual machines to it.
In the case of virtual machines, clone them using the hypervisor.
