I bought a Sabrent EC-SS31 1.5" SATA HDD/SSD to USB 3.1 Adapter to convert internal 128GB SATA SSDs to three Dell 9020M Optiplex new Samsung 860 EVO to clone. 1TB SSD at work. A USB-C adapter came with the cable which I didn't use. The end of the year is always busy for our company. We'll see if we can buy new toys , how much we need will spend money and insist on being there in time for taxes by the end of the year This year we had to switch from Windows 7 to Windows 10, but we didn't scream "new PCs", instead the orders were "do what we have better and last longer" Wow! We started using these systems in December 2012. I wanted to replace them in 2017 but they work perfectly. At the end of 2018 we completely ran out of built-in RAM. - Unfortunately, I had no experience in disk cloning. The 1TB Samsung 860 EVO drives replace the worn out 128GB SSDs in the box. Reviews, tech tests etc have shown that the 860 EVO is better in every way regardless of size and 1TB should give us enough headroom for the next 5-7 years as the actual storage is provided by the NAS. The userbenchmark.com site was invaluable in this regard. After that, the next step was to connect the drive. Reviews I've read here and elsewhere (including the site above) have shown that there have been many cable manufacturers, but Sabrent has consistently popped up as successful, trouble-free, well-made, solid, reliable, etc. across the board. but the only manufacturer that consistently performed well was Sabrent, regardless of price. That's why I chose the Sabrent, although it certainly wasn't the cheapest. The last piece of the puzzle was the software. It was a real challenge, everyone seems to have their own favorite, but everyone had horror stories and 'fixes' that mostly work - usually from hobbyists and gamers. Accronis was well thought out and available from Sabrent. Samsung also releases software specifically for this purpose that is free to use on its drives. This limits Samsung software reviews, but the existing reviews were very reliable. When I was done, I budgeted the hard drives, cables, software as a purchase, and three days of project time. I figured each machine would idle between 3 and 8 hours. I was wrong! Dell had 128GB Samsung SATA SSDs. The Sabrent cable fits perfectly. Samsung's free software was sophisticated, polished, simple, flawless, smooth and fast. I mean very quickly. The first box, which I expected to take 4-5 hours including unattended downtime just to do the migration, took 30 minutes including physically swapping drives after the migration was complete. The translation itself took less than 10 minutes. The only reason it worked was because the Sabrent cable worked fine.
