Here is want happen today! I downloaded the wrong Samsung Magician software previously. There are two software programs: One for transferring the contents and the other is for just info on Samsungs and other SSD in your PC. It just a basic info and you can use it to erase content and make additional partitions too!
So, I clone the Samsung 860 Evo which is really a few clicks and it automatically done for you. I just took the cables - power and unit from the optical drive and connected them on to the 860. The Thinkstation used a proprietary unit SATA cable; which is why the Lenovo Intel SSD has a proprietary connector to it that different from that of regular SSD drives. I just took the optical drive unit SATA cable and remove it and used it to operate my new Samsung 860 and went to Lenovo online to order a new Lenovo unit SATA cable with the right end. It was pretty pricey too! Wait for it to come now so I can use my optical drive again!
It seems faster since my Chrome browser webpages are instantaneous and it boots up about 1/2 the time then the Intel SSD.
