    I suggest you could use SharePoint Migration Tool (SPMT) which is a Microsoft developed migration tool available at no cost to migrate contents. To download: SharePoint Migration Tool. And it should be done in phases.

    Before migration, you could use SharePoint Migration Assessment Tool which is a simple command line executable tool. It scans the contents of your SharePoint farm to help identify the impact of migrating your server to SharePoint with Microsoft 365.
