[NAME] Can you run Disk Management and compare the results of the HDD with the results of the SSD. You should see several partitions including an OS partition, a Recovery partition, and an EFI System partition. You should look at the limitations of the Samsung Data Migration software listed in the User's Guide to see if any apply. .In addition, you could try cloning with Macrium Reflect Free Edition in case there may be an issue with the Samsung software.
Windows 10.  xps 8500 1tb hard drive, 8gb ram; Hard drive works fine but want to install a new samsung evo 860 using the sata 0 port. I've done ssd upgrades on my own pc before and never had an issue.  First time working on wife's dell. Cloned the drive using samsung migration software; actually tried this twice.  Removed old hdd, swapped cables around to sata 0 port. After trying to boot up just past the dell logo i get the blue screen ( your device ran into a problem and needs to restart). Loop commences. -Went into bios, the new hard drive is recognized.  -Boot priority is set as internal hard drive samsung as number 1. -legacy mode Checked all connectors, ram cables motherboard etc.  Booted back into old 1tb hard drive no problem.  Plugged the samsung ssd in and can see the files transferred over it just won't boot.  Ran samsung magician diagnostics; it didn't find any SSD problems and correctly read and wrote to ssd.  I need some suggestions on what to try next.  Disk management?  I don't really understand why it would be messed up..... thanks, Gus in Vegas
