I successfully cloned the drive onto the Samsung SSD and I want to completely wipe the SSD I cloned from. Can I do that without affecting the windows program? Did the OS transfer to the Samsung SSD when I cloned it? I really can't tell. Is wiping the old SSD a possibility?

Well, since you "successfully" cloned the contents of your "SPC" (whatever that is) SSD to a Samsung SSD one would think there's a good chance all is well, right?

But just as a precaution...

Do you think it would be a good idea to boot to the Samsung and confirm that you have a bootable, functional drive just as you had with the "SPC" SSD? So after working with the Samsung for a reasonable period of time to verify all is well with that drive, you could then make whatever changes you desire to the "SPC" drive. You could even "wipe" that drive if that's what you want.

I suppose what I've recommended above has occurred to you, has it not? So I suspect there's something more here that's bothering you. Perhaps you might want to amplify...
