I tried this to transfer to my Samsung evo 970 m.2 from my wd green but it just stays at 0% from the beginning 2 hours and still 0 trying to transfer 85 gigs. PLEASE HELP!
Thanks bro you’re amazing
Trying to do this now. I’m getting frustrated with this because it’s supposed to be simple!!! To the best of my knowledge I’ve done everything you said in this video and yet still the migration software just closes on its own after hitting start. Or it starts and is “interrupted by something unknown “…… any suggestions?
finished cloning but it doesnt show a windows boot manager for my ssd
After migration can I format old c drive
Great! Cheers mate!
Millions of like for this video, Thank you.
Thank you. Worked like a charm!
This worked for me after failing on my own. Thanks so much!
So you could just start in safe mode to ensure nothing extra is running?
I have 2 questions:
1. Does this sumsung tool also work for other brand SSD?
2. Does it copy everything include installled software to new drive?
is the samsung data program only for samsung ssd ?
Thank you for the tip on fixing the command prompt.
Thank you! Very helpful!!! 👍🏽👍🏽
Thank you! I followed step by step turning everything off per instructions and had no issues. Great video.
Does your old drive need to be a Samsung for this to work?
Thanks for tips, made my life easier and risk free. I have one question that I have not researched yet as I just finished the migration and restarted and might help others, Is the samsung migration software only copy the boot drive if the original hdd was partitioned? Or I missed out a selection option somewhere? Thank you
About to convert from HDD to SSD. This is really helpful. One question. I understand that some people use Macrium so that they can adjust the size of their partition drive. Is this something to consider? Thanks.
I use your instructions and change my hard drive to Samsung EVO 860 SSD to change my old Laptop dell inspiron 14R . Work well. Thanks
Best video on the Samsung Data Migration Software. He greatly explains the failures some can come across with getting the OS to migrate to the SSD. Such as 1) Going into CMD prompt and running the chkdsk command 2)Disabling all unnecessary programs running in the background through the use of Task Manager. Flackbox, much praise and appreciation for making this video. Let this be a lesson to all. If you have a Samsung SSD, follow this method before you spend countless dollars on unnecessary “free” softwares that force you to pay to run a software.
Hey Neil, I just wanted to thank you because your video is excellent. I followed right along with successful results. The 'extra' details and/or suggestion are what separates your video from a whole bunch of other ones, and saving frustration is very appreciated. Great job!!
please help. if OS can be clone to an external SSD and use on another computer than the windows would be count as counterfeit? Wilk the windows work normally?
Thank you! Very, very helpful!
I am replacing an SSD drive with a larger Sumsung SSD. I assume running Checkdisk is still appropriate?
I'm having no luck. It'll stop at various times through out the process and fail for me. One
time at 11%, another time at 70%, and it did make it to 99% once. I've been
getting this error in red during the migration. "The Data Migration
Function has been interrupted for an unknown reason."
Are you from Scotland?
It claims the computer will shut down in 20 seconds and the cloning will begin. All it does is the box disappears and leaves me at the desktop. It looks like this version is newer than yours so maybe it does disappear, but nothing lets you know its running.
Despite following your good thorough tutorial the Samsung Data Migrator couldn't get the job done after > 24 hours waiting and fiddling I turned to …

What a welcome breeze with zero hiccups.
Cheers
thanks you are live saver 😊👍
can i run it in windows safe mode?
Hi, I am wondering if I can do the same with my CPU but only transfer the OS to the SSD as it will be used as storage in addition to my HDD which I will keep. Is there anyway to select what is cloned? Also once complete can I just delete the OS from the HDD and the CPU will run fine using the OS data which has been cloned?
Thanks for the informative video!
do you intialize the disk before or after the migration in create and format hard disk partitions?
Does this work for non samsung drives?
Very helpful – will follow these suggestions exactly. One question though, how do I turn OFF Airplane mode once everything is done and working?
top work my friend
