Easy ways to upgrade Macbook Pro's flash storage fr 256GB to 2TB

Anyone has a step by step instructions/guide on how to upgrade
a Macbook Pro 13" (2012 release)  flash storage of 250GB to 2TB?
Ideally all the apps (including MS Office, etc) & data are ported over.

Will need to install OSX to the new 2TB SSD or if possible, can I
use Acronis CDROM to just do a bare metal backup & restore
over?  I have Acronis though it's about 9 years ago version
which I've successfully tested (booting up from CD) to
restore for Windows laptops.

I'm a complete newbie in Macbooks & OSX.  

Pls recommend the compatible brands of SSD for the
Macbook Pro 13"  (Yr 2012) that could fit in.  Reckon it'll
void warranty but it's out of warranty any way.

It's actually 2013's model as my colleague told me  2012's model can be opened (he has opened his
& added a 2nd SSD for Windows while original SSD still on OSX) while my kid's model is soldered &
he advised that it's best an authorized Apple shop opens it

ie his Macbook Pro  2012  supports 2 SSDs in it.

Can my model support 2 SSDs?
