Hello,
you can just add a new OS DC to the domain and no real migration is required. Details are in:
Important is that DC/domain are healthy BEFORE starting.
Con: NONE
PRO: Windows 2000 is out of support, functionality like Fine grained password policies, lot more GPOs and so much more as that is a major jump for the OS version.
