Hey,

Has anyone tried to use the Samsung Data Migration software for other brands? I have a new Crucial SSD and, faced with a 263MB (!) Acronis d/l over a torpid internet connection, am wondering if my Sammy disc will work.

Anyone?

The last I checked, a Macrium Reflect download is under 50 GB and can clone or image to a new disk.

I wouldn't think it would hurt to at least try the Samsung software, but it might balk outright and quit if it does not see a Samsung drive as the destination.
