Samsung EVO 850 SSD


My Samsung EVO 840 120GB is running low on space. I'm thinking to upgrade to a EVO 850 500GB or 1TB. Anyone with any experience and suggestions?

I also noticed there is a price difference.. Amazon seem to be selling them cheaper than I could buy it in Singapore (even with added shipping)... arrgghh. !!!

After getting the SSD, the next issue is how can I clone my C:\ (a smaller SSD) which has Windows 8.1 installed onto this newer and bigger SSD?

I think the simplest solution is likely the Paragon Migrate OS to SSD software. Or their flagship Hard Disk Manager 15 product suite.

While researching for this software, I also came across a hardisk rescue software called SpinRite 6.0 which I think is well worth looking into it, especially if your HDD is failing with some bad sectors...
