samsung magician does not recognise the ssd as a samsung ssd but only as a usb disk but i cannot do anything to clone or to see the ssd via the usb cable from sata3 to usb
i have in the source disk (HDD) windows 10 i do not know what is the problem and where is exactly the incompatibility but there is not so easy as described in figures of samsung installation guide

Hi tgaloukas,

It sounds like your computer doesn't have a good connection to the SSD. First thing to try would be to move the drive data cable to a different SATA port on your motherboard. You might also want to try a different SATA data cable if you can.

No problem,

Well it sounds like you might have gotten a bad drive. The Samsung 850's come with a 5 year warranty, so I'm sure you can get it replaced for a working model. I think the best thing to do at this point is contact Samsung Support and see if they can help you from here.

I do not think that is a bad drive but a bat software I will try to migrate with another clone program and I will tell you after the action it is noticeable anyway that the Samsung gave this disk in the market with Windows 10 and macs with os10 without testing first the compatibility and if it works it is obvious that there is not chance so many users with this disk to have all of them the same unsolved problem
With regards but and disappointment for my purchase which took my money for hardware and software and the software does not work ( I believe and I hope that the problem is the compatibility with Windows 10 and so on because for mac users and about Mac there is not either software relative for 850 Evi reaches up to 840!!!
