Hello,
Recently i just bought Samsung SSD Evo 850 M.2 for my laptop and I used Samsung Data migration and it work flawlessly. After using it for a few weeks I bought another laptop and planing to use the same samsung SSD EVO M.2 with the new laptop. My question is how to I revert my old laptop back to original HD from Samsung SSD? I didn't see revert option on samsung data migration. Also I saw Samsung magician software option "secure Erase" should i do that?
Any information is helpful.
Thanks

There is no "revert".

Just do the clone thing again, but in the other direction.
Samsung Data Migration probably won't allow this, so use Macrium Reflect.

At the end of the process, power off
Remove the m.2 driv e, and allow the system to (hopefully) power up from the HDD.

If it works, then put the m.2 in the other system and proceed on.
I'm assuming you wish to do the clone thing again with this next laptop?
