I recently bought a new Samsung 840 Pro 128GB SSD. My plan was to move my OS over from my 2TB HDD and onto the SSD. So what I did was wipe the 2TB HDD and prepared to move it over to the SSD using the software Samsung included. Heres where the problem is, when it reaches 99% it says it failed and the SSD isn't connected. Also the SSD shows up as a K drive in my computer menu and when I try to open the drive it says I can't and it may be corrupted. Have I missed a step in activated the SSD or something? Can someone please help me, I am very new to this!

Nope, my 2TB drive was restored to factory settings so there is hardly anything on it.

I encountered the same problem though not with a 2TB drive. Are you using the latest version of the Magician software? If not, visit the Samsung site and download the latest version. If that doesn't work or you already have the latest version let me know.

If you wiped the HDD already, why not just do a fresh install onto the SSD?
