  1. UPDATE: So I took out the HDD and the computer booted up fine to the SSD which is great but now that I'm bootibng to an SSD I noticed that the BIOS screen is taking forever to load, something like a minute and then once windows loads it takes 10 seconds or so to boot up is there any way to fix this or could it be a problem with my motherboard?
  2. I'm in class at the moment but will disconnect the HDD and try to boot the computer without it to see if that will work About the BIOS, I believe I was able to get into the boot menu a long time ago but haven't needed too in the past couple years so I don't know when the problem started. I have tried all of the F keys along with Delete and End to see if that could get me in but with no luck
  3. So would it work to just format the HDD and leave the computer to boot off of the SSD or do I have to go into the boot menu of my bios to work through that. One note I want to make is that I can't access my bios boot menu for some reason. The F12 key won't let me get into the boot menu and I'm not able to get to the UEFI through the windows startup menu. Any suggestions or help would be appreciated
  4. The data migration tool updated when I installed it and I checked the website which has the same version as its up to date one. I upgraded to windows 10 from windows 7 or 8 ( I don't remember, I think it was 7). EDIT: I've gone through and deleted the OEM and Recovery Partitions on the SSD through Diskpart, is there a way for me to combine the partition of the SSD on drive A with the unallocated one that I have now? Nvm found out that I can extend the partition of Disk A So I guess the only thing I need to know is if I can just format my HDD drive and if it will automatically boot off of the SSD
  5. Here is screenshots of the Samsung Magician Tool along with the partitions in the Disk Manager The Drive is a Samsung 850 EVO 500gb
  6. Alright so that worked but it made a 142.52Gb Healthy (Recovery Partition) and a 143.56 Gb Healthy (OEM Partition) Is it okay to get rid of these and if so how would I do that?
  7. Sorry new on the forums, I believe this is how I quote When I took it out I just plugged it in and then tried using the Samsung Migration Tool At the moment I just formatted the drive and am trying to use EaseUW Todo Backup to clone the drives
  8. It says I can't start a secure wipe, I'm guessing its because the drive is unallocated
  9. Yep, it only allows you to run it as an admin
  10. Thats a good sign then, but do you have any idea what could be causing the error?
  11. Hey, So I got a Samsung EVO 500gb and am trying to clone my HDD (which I just reset to a new windows 10) to the SSD using the Samsung Data Migration Tool which is giving an error for "An Error occurred during defragmentation Error Code 304000 [04a380]" Any ideas on what I could be the problem My thought is that the HDD is larger than the SSD but I can't find a way to shrink the HDD partition to something smaller
