How does Samsung Data Migration work?

Samsung Data Migration works by scanning your entire hard disk to detect all files and folders, including system data and the drive size. It auto-identifies the Samsung SSD inserted into the PC and formats the disk before copying the operating system.

Using a simplistic wizard, all you have to do is select the source disk with your operating system and the target disk with the SSD storage. You can’t handpick the files you want to copy while excluding the rest since Samsung Data Migration performs this operation automatically – everything related to Windows system files is included, including the System Reserved Partition.

Does Samsung Data Migration work?

Yes, Samsung Data Migration definitely works. You can test it for yourself since it’s freeware.

However, keep in mind that it only runs if your operating system is installed on the source disk. You can’t use it to back up custom files and folders. Moreover, SDM can’t clone encrypted disks. If you used HDD or SSD encryption software, you have to remove the encryption to be able to use this tool.

Does Samsung Data Migration work with other SSD?

No, Samsung Data Migration works only with Samsung SSDs.

Does Samsung Data Migration delete files?

No, Samsung Data Migration leaves the original files intact. It only copies the files to the SSD. On the other hand, it deletes the files on the SSD, so make sure to back up any data left there before using the disk for OS cloning.
