Thanks for reading. I just got my new Samsung 840 SSD 250gb with the migration software. I'm using that program on my Windows 8 system to move the files from my HDD to my SSD. I have the drive properly installed internally within my desktop's chassis. I only have 185 gigs of files to transfer, well within the limit for cloning, according to the program.

All seemed well until the process reached "100%." Now, the program is "not responding" and has been stuck on that for longer than it took to do the full transfer (it took about 30 minutes, and has been stuck on this screen for 45). There is a warning that says "Never disconnect while file cloning is in progress." What should I do? Is it actually still working, or is there some problem? Thanks.

It ended up working, the file cloning but now i have a worse problem..!!! the thing won't boot. In fact, when i d/c the SSD, my old HDD will not boot. So now I have 2 disks, neither of which boot.

Thaught I had the same problem, googled and searched and in he meantime the cloning successfully finished. So my advice is: wait for an hour - at least it solved my problem.
