Did you clone this drive? Under win7/8/8.1/10 this should be set at 1024k or anything divisible by 4 at initial setup (assuming you partitioned the drive or let windows do it. As for changing it there are utilities that may be able to. Best answer is to reinstall *or* partition and format the drive before re-cloning from your source drive.

Yes, I did clone and migrate it using Samsung Data Migration software. Would totally wiping it and reinstalling it solve the problem?

Yes, it will. You can check alignment using the command line "Diskpart" right after install to confirm alignment. Just be sure to have all your drivers etc etc before starting.

Is there any way of migrating my SDD to HDD so I can re-partition the SDD and put the Windows back on? I do not have a setup, nor a bootable USB/DVD.
