Error Code 10 Cloning Samsung 840 Pro SSD

Thread needs solution

I have attempted to clone HDD in my HP Envy, Windows 8 PC multiple times to Samsung 840 PRO 256 GB SSD. PC is new, has only factory installed programs on HDD plus Acronis True Image 2014.
Each time I get Error Code 10 "Failed to clone with errors."
It is a file system error: Directory corrupted, extended code 458,366.
After two failures, same errors I used Samsung Magician software to run Secure Erase of the SSD, set it back to factory defaults. I got the same error again.

Run chkdsk /r on each partition of the internal drive, and on the external HD. If there are hidden partitions, assign letters to them so you can chkdsk.
Also run a drive checking utility from the drive manufacturer, as those sometimes catch errors missed by chkdsk.

Also, Clone should be used only by advanced users who know what they are doing. It is riskier and can result in a loss of data and a failed system. Create a full disk mode backup and restore it, using the bootable Rescue Media, to the new disk, as it's far safer.
