Samsung EVO's not recognized via USB connection

Bought this hard drive on sale at BB to upgrade a current functioning SSD and planned on connecting it via a USB to SATA adapter that I have and have used successfully for this purpose in the past for cloning an image of the current drive including the OS and data. After researching when the drive was not recognized, I discovered that for some unknown and unexplained reason that these Samsung EVO SSD drives are not recognized via USB even when using Samgsung's Magician software. I returned to Best Buy for a refund and will use a different brand. My last SSD was a SanDisk and it was easily cloned with the old HDD OS via USB.
I found this online:
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 and features.
Thank you for your review of this Samsung 870 EVO SSD. I’m sorry to hear that your drive did not meet your needs and have returned it.

I purchased on Aug. 7 and I wait a month before I review so if there is any problems I can return and let others know. It has worked as expected. It used as a backup drive.

Everything went well. The HP laptop is wonderful and fits our needs. The sales rep was very informative and pleasant to work with. The Geek Squad was also a pleasure to work with

Just what I was looking for. Made the switch to SSD and haven't looked back. Sooooooooo Much faster and load times are a thing of the past. Definitely a must have for all PC builders.
