Hi,

I connected a Samsung Evo 860 SD 1TB  connected via caddy sata 3 to USB on the laptop

to check genuineness I installed Samsung magician,

but it does not recognize the drive, does it mean the drive is a clone or fake?

 

Thanks,

Ahmed

Hi user2zIIZ8sOIT,

The Samsung Magician will not support the 860 EVO SSD, if it is connected via USB. Once the drive is installed and connected through the SATA port of your motherboard as designed, then the Samsung Magician will have full communication and give you all of the drives information anf features.
