Hi ive got this SSD from ebay and would like to clone my HDD to it, ive done the same with my laptop and a crucial SSD but with the Samsung i've hit a few snags
Ive tried these softwares and none will work:
Samsung Magician (though its detected it displays not supported with no options)
Samsung Data Migration (not detected at all with the following in the help files)
(* This software only supports the Samsung SSDs listed in the User Manual. OEM storage devices provided through a computer manufacturer or supplied through other channels are not supported.)
(* This software only runs if the operating system is installed on the Source Disk. It does not function on disks that lack an operating system installation.)
I dont have the OS on this SSD yet, i was hoping to clone everything i have on my HDD to the SSD using a usb adapter the same way i updated my laptop
Is there any third party software that you can recommend to do this or will i have to install windows to the SSD then transfer or do a clone then and copy over it maybe?
