The only problem with this is that where you create the image of the source disk must be on a third disk - You can't store the image on the disk your are backing up, and you obviously can't save it to the SSD as you want to overwrite that disk. Image the HDD - including any system, recovery or reserved partitions if they exist, then restore same to the SSD. I've even had a situation recently where a 960 EVO 500GB to 960 EVO 1TB cloned OK and refused to boot - It didn't copy across the UEFI Boot information. It will clone everything, if the source disk has more data than can fit on the destination disk it will tell you the destination is full. For example, a SM951 to 860 EVO would not work with this program.Īlso, how much data is on the HDD drive? More than 250GB total? Data Migration is just a dumb clone program.

While a bios update is not difficult, an incorrect or corrupted flash can render your board unbootable ie junk.I believe the Samsung data migration tool can only migrate Samsung to Samsung. IMO using a windows based flashing program is just asking for a problem. The ONLY way I ever update an asrock board is by using instant flash which is a utility built into the bios itself. If you do decide to update, be sure you read and fully understand the flashing procedure. Up to you if you want to attempt a flash with a beta bios. Generally I recommend using the latest release bios and not a beta unless the beta bios has a fix or support you need. Up to you if you want to attempt to update the bios to a beta release. It is possible that the beta bios has options for win10. There are beta bios listed as late as May of 2018. The latest release bios is dated July of 2013 however win10 was not RTM until 2015. In the manual, the newest supported operating system is win7 however the support page lists win10 as supported. I checked the support page for your board and found something that may help.

I looked at your manual and you are correct it is pretty poor. I want to make sure however I do this that I don't have to do it more than once and that when it is done that all of the data on the new drive is identical to the existing drive so I can be certain of it's integrity. Of course if there is an even better way to do this then please do let me know. Hopefully all of my questions can be answered. What I don't know: does cloning also have the same option to verify identical to the original? 2nd Would using Macrium Reflect be better to use? If the rescue media can clone, would it be best to clone that way? What I do know is that when I do a backup it has the option to verify the backup to make sure it is identical to the original. It also asks about creating a rescue media (not sure if you can use that to clone). I have never used Macrium Reflect to clone before. Macrium Reflect has an option when running it from windows to "clone this disk".

I have always used that to perform backups of my drive to a network connected storage PC with a drive shared for it to backup the data to.

I have Macrium Reflect Free Edition v 64bit (running it tells me I can upgrade to 7.1). Is samsung data migration going to clone all of this?Īlso does samsung data migration verify that the cloned contents of the new SSD are identical to those from the original disk? I would have thought that a tool like this would run as a bootable USB or CD/DVD so that there is no chance at all that any file would be open or anything at all running that could interfere with the process or prevent any amount of data no matter how small to not get cloned.Īlso my current HDD (MBR) that has C: drive (one to be cloned) is actually 3 partitions: "System Reserved" (500 MB), "C: 18620.02 GB" (1.52 TB free), and unnamed 521 MB (shown as recovery partition). Would this be a problem since OS files and anything virus protection etc is doing will make all sorts of files be open? Got new samsung 860 EVO SSD (GPT) and before starting samsung data migration I'm warned that open files on the source disk cannot be cloned.
