Questions About Migrating System to Larger SSD
I have a Dell XPS 8700 with a 256GB SSD and its time to migrate to a larger SSD. I intend to keep the small SSD after the migration is finished. I have a couple of question. The new SSD is a Samsung 850 Evo so I understand that the Samsung Magician software that's included should take care of the migration without problems. If anyone has experience using the Magician I like to hear from you if there are any gotcha's I need to look out for.
I'm also concerned about some of the directories that I've redirected to a larger HDD (My Documents, Downloads, My Music, My Pictures, My Videos) will still function properly as long as I don't change the drive letter on the destination HDD, correct?
I'm also assuming that I should change the drive letter on the old SSD to allow me to use "C" for the new SSD, correct?
I'm also assuming that the Samsung Magician is smart enough that it won't duplicate the "signature of the old SSD to the new one, correct?
Thanks for your comments and suggestions.
