make a bootable clone of the hard disk

Hi all!
I currently have a new laptop (UEFI) with opensuse 13.1 and windows 8 (x 64 ).
I want to create a clone (exact copy of the laptops hard disk (750 GB) ) to another one of the same type but larger (1TB).
I found that it could be done using the command
dd if=/dev/sda of=/dev/sdb
but I am not sure if the clone disk will be bootable and if all the partitions (including windows8 ) and the OSs(win+suse) will work out fine.
Do I have to create an additional 250GB partition first? And how?
Thanks in advance!
