Hi there,

I have a samsung mz-vlb2560 256gb SSD from a Razer laptop, which I changed out for a new 970 Evo.

I have tried formatting the 256SSD as it was used for the windows OS install on the razer laptop. I only get 238 gb it says there are 18gb used on the drive - not sure what files are 18gb but i cannot delete it.

I have tried to access this but I cannot seem to find a partition on this or anyway in which I can delete this 218gb.

I want to clone my windows installtion onto this new drive but even samsungs software canmt see the drive when i trty to use the migration software..

Can someone help me or put me in the right direction on how to recover this 18gb and clobne my drive to this new SSD?
