If you think that you are likely to want to do this on any kind of regular basis, I would suggest that Clonezilla is an excellent tool. However in some cases it will require that the system is taken out of production to allow the clone.
Works at a full disk level, partition level or even a file system level - from experience it works on almost all X86 systems and all the combinations of OS.

SYNOPSIS
dos2unix msdosfile
OPTIONS

OPERANDS
Name of the file to convert.
DESCRIPTION
The dos2unix command converts a file from DOS format to UNIX format. The converted file replaces the original file.
Subdirectory names that contain the '/' or '' separator are supported. If you use the '' separator or wildcards, you must enclose file
names in quotes to protect them from the shell.
The mcd command can be used to establish the device and the current working directory (relative to DOS), otherwise the default is A:.
EXIT STATUS
The following exit values are returned: Success. Failure.
ENVIRONMENT VARIABLES
The following environment variables affect the execution of dos2unix: If set, this variable names the file that contains the name of the
current mtools working directory as established by the mcd command. If this variable is not set, the file $HOME/.mcwd is used.
FILES
Contains the name of the current mtools working directory as established by the mcd command. If this file does not exist, the default
mtools working directory is A:. Executable file
