First off sorry if i categorized this wrong, or something like that, im using my phone and i'm new here.
Ok so i got a new 850 Evo 512gb ssd drive last week and i used samsungs own program to copy all the data from the old Boot drive to this new one and then changed the boot order. All seemed tl be well and the System showed me that the new drive is the boot drive. After this i decided to wipe the old boot drive( 830 128gb samsung drive) using samsung magicians clear erase to use it as a disk for games. Magician told me the ssd was in a frozen state and i followed orders to open my casing remove the SATA power cable, reconnect it and then continue with the clear erase. I resumed the clear erase and shortly after the pc got slow and froze, nothing seems to be happening now and the secure erase is stuck at 20%. I can move the mouse cursor freely around, but nothing is responding. Can i reboot without breaking anything?
