is it safe to use the Migration Software included in my 840 Pro, to transfer my OS over? Or do I need to do a fresh install..

I had trouble with "Data Migration" at first. After several attempts, it notified me that there was a newer version available and did I want to install it? After the update it worked like a charm, so be sure to get the latest version from Samsung's website! Highly recommended!

The Samsung cloning software is great to use if you have a Samsung SSD. If you can fit all of your current data onto your SSD, then the defaults should work just fine. If you can't, it will walk you through leaving behind files to give you enough room.
