On the bright side a fresh install will clean years of clutter up. I do a fresh install on the new drives, plus because my original data drive were setup as a dynamic "virtual raid partition" I will set that up as AHCI SSD mode, then try Magician Rapid Mode on top of that. My trying to install a new OS problem is related to the fact that I altered the path to some windows directories so they stored stuff like "user dir" on my data drive, this means I need to do an OS reinstall, but you will likely not need to if your old drives are primary and you use a standard OS setup.īut I can refit the old drives as they were to keep working while

This should not be a problem though if you have a standard Windows install to upgrade on top of. I would like to install Win 10 over my current Win 7 install, but cant because to save space on the old drives I moved some windows system directories to the data drive and replacing my old data drive with the new stops some windows functionality. My remaining loosely related issue (as the new drives are doing what they should now) is related to upgrading my OS to Win 10 and wanting to reset the Bios drive setting to run AHCI (best ssd comparability mode). Replacing the old primary NTFS drives with the new Samsung drives and all is working. I copied all data via an external USB drive case to the 2nd NEW reformatted drive. NB: Samsung data migration tool would only let me Migrate a Primary C: drive, not my Dynamic Data drive, so I cloned the C drive again, to my 2nd NEW Samsung Evo Pro 850, then I reformatted that 2nd drive in windows, to give me a clean drive. Once this is done you can then reformat them if you want clean SSD drivesĪnd they can be recognised by windows with "NO Access Denied" error.
