Larissa updated on Oct 29, 2024 to Data Backup Questions Answered | How-to Articles

I have been using my Samsung SATA III Evo drive for years, and now I want to replace it with a new Samsung 980 Pro M.2 SSD. How can I clone all the data on my Samsung SSD to this new M.2 SSD? I used Samsung Data Migration to do it, but it failed to boot from the cloned M.2 SSD. Do you have any good suggestions?

Samsung SSD has its own disk cloning tool, Samsung Data Migration, that allows its users to clone a Samsung SSD to another Samsung SSD. Most Samsung SSD users rely on this tool to migrate data. However, this utility has limitations; for example, it only works on Samsung disks. It also lacks advanced cloning options, such as disk formatting, resizing partitions, etc. 

If you want to successfully and smoothly clone a hard drive to another without any hassle, the best way is to seek help from a professional disk cloning tool, like EaseUS Disk Copy.

EaseUS Disk Copy is an easy-to-use and reliable program for cloning Samsung SSDs to Samsung M.2 and other disk brands. Supported by advanced technology, you can clone an HDD or SSD with several simple steps using EaseUS Disk Copy.

Step 1. Connect or install the new Samsung M.2 SSD into your computer, and ensure it can be recognized properly.

Step 2. Launch EaseUS Disk Copy and select Disk Mode.

Step 3. Select the old Samsung SSD as the source disk and the new Samsung M.2 as the target disk. 

Step 4. Click Proceed to start cloning, then wait for the process to finish.

When the cloning is completed, you can replace the old Samsung SSD with the new M.2 SSD and run your system smoothly on it.
