This is just a quick thanks for your help. I have reloaded the astroberry server, which includes the latest firmware allowing the pi SD copier to copy my new SD card image (/boot, /root and a new 2GB NTFS data partition) to SSD. On copying the data partition was automatically expanded to fill the unallocated space on the SSD.

Now I have a backup / dev image on the SD which I can update as required and deploy when wanted. The only limitation is that I can't fill the SD beyond about 22Gb - plenty room left atm.
Best
