Hello!

I just got a Samsung 840 evo and am trying to migrate my os but my c: drive is too big and I dont have any media files to exclude from the transfer the biggest thing I have are folders such as steam, how could I exclude them?

Thanks in advance!

Also could I just transfer the windows folder directly?

Honestly man your best bet is to reinstall your os onto the ssd and then all files than can be transferred just copy them straight over. 

So I spelt something wrong in my post... I don't care I don't read through what I write and I type very quickly.


Intel 3770k stock, MSI Z77A-GD65, MSI GTX 760, Corsair Vengence DDR3 1600Mhz 16Gb, Corsair RM 550W, Samsung 830 256Gb, some random hdds.

You can copy the Steam folder to another drive and somehow let Steam know the games are now there.

So the OS will be small enough to be copied to your SSD to let the Magician software do it's job.
