I've been watching MMA for years, doesn't mean I can get into the octagon and hold my own. And if you're referring to cloning a drive to new hardware which has driver conflicts, that's an incredibly easy fix (Windows 8/10 even fixes it all by itself) There is absolutely nothing wrong with cloning a drive unless you have some malware infected and corrupted OS install. I mean that while WD is excellent for HDDs they seem to have trouble with SSDs so they may not be a reliable source of information about them. Usually cloning a data drive is fine, worst thing that can happen is a corrupted file or two. If one of the best hard drive manufacturers in the world says that it is bad to do, and there are millions of complains on the internet proving just that, then you SHOULD NOT clone. He had a ton of experience with storage drives and technology. This is something Captain WD (a LTT forum member) told me before he left. Or the user finally stops being lazy and clean isntalls windows.Īlso, this has nothing to do with WD SSDs.
#Samsung nvme driver window s7 install#
When a user clones, it's not samsung's fault if it doesn't work correctly, they take their PC to a repair store and there they clean install windows for you. They want an easy way so they just clone and eventually run into issues. They make a cloning program because most users are too lazy or dumb to do a clean install. You can google "issues after cloning" to see the millions of bad things that happen. No offense but WD SSDs are regarded rather poorly I believe so I'm not exactly inclined to take their word alone on the issue.
Then why does Samsung make a cloning program specifically for their SSDs if cloning to or from them is so bad? Do you have a source for this assertion that it causes OS glitches often?
