[SOLVED] Why can't I migrate my data onto my new SSD?

[BeblixBirb]

I recently got a new SSD, and am trying to move all my files from my old hard drive onto it. In the samsung data migration software, it says I need addtional space on the target drive (about 68gb) despite the hard drive being 100gb under capacity. Both the disk and ssd are 1tb.

are you cloning or copying? did you look at the usable space?

To clone into a 1TB drive, the actual consumed space on the Source drive needs to be below 800GB.
The tool needs some free space to work with.
