If you're looking to document all this then you might want to add what software to use to clone and repartition. Here are a couple of free apps I use.
Cloning:

Re-partitioning:

Also try to avoid the term copy because people might confuse the term cloning with copy and paste. It does not work that way.

- To increase the Clara's storage, the 4GB card must be cloned [copied to] to the larger card (thus transferring the firmware).
- Although Kobo recommends FAT32 formatting of the SDHC card, cards in the range of 64GB and above can use exFAT.
- The larger card should have a single partition.
If I have made any errors in my summary, please correct them!
Additional information:
- The Clara can be opened by carefully "splitting" the top and bottom portions, as shown in earlier photos. When done, the halves can be snapped together.
- Class 10 cards have been used, because they have much higher speed capabilities than lower classes. However, the maximum transfer rate is determined by the device.
- When purchasing the larger card, be careful - counterfeit cards are quite numerous. Purchase from a reputable dealer.
