Need some help with Samsung 850 evo

[Rage8725]

Hello all,
I just purchased a Samsung 850 evo ssd and it came in today. I thought it would come with the correct wiring, but that'd be too easy. It came with nothing, so what cables will I need to set this up? It shows in the picture what looks like a sata to usb? As well as a sata I assume? Thanks for any help

You need a sata data cable to connect to mobo (same kind of cable connecting mobo to hdd unless your system is very old). Should be a sata power cable already available from your psu.

yea i have the power cable, i do need to buy a sata cable though. But my main question is do I have to buy the usb to sata cable to transfer over my os? Or can I just plug it in and transfer it over like that?

Just plug in to sata on mobo and clone.
