02 Jul 2020Trying 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?

02 Jul 2020Does your old drive need to be a Samsung for this to work?

02 Jul 2020Thanks 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

02 Jul 2020About 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.

02 Jul 2020Best 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.

02 Jul 2020Hey 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!!

02 Jul 2020I am replacing an SSD drive with a larger Sumsung SSD. I assume running Checkdisk is still appropriate?

02 Jul 2020I'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."

02 Jul 2020It 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.

02 Jul 2020can i run it in windows safe mode?

02 Jul 2020Hi, 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!

02 Jul 2020do you intialize the disk before or after the migration in create and format hard disk partitions?
