Should've used Macrium to begin with. It's a better software all around. The only thing worth using Samsung Magician for is updating firmware. I update firmware on a new drive, then uninstall the software.

I've bought a ton of Samsung drives with the expectation that I could clone replacements using the Magician software and an external enclosure. For my latest drive this didn't work. Samsung support told me my no-name enclosure didn't work, but a Sabrent enclosure would. Nope.

So, I'll need to use Macrium, just like with every other drive. After a dozen or so Samsung drives I'm done with them.

That is weird, so a 980 pro worked with your external drive and another 980 pro didn't for unknown reasons?

I think magician you need samsung drive to samsung drive and it can't be any other brand drive.

I used a random Ugreen enclosure and macrium to clone to a 980 pro 2TB

980 is meh. Got the 990 2TB for $143 (before taxes). Nah bro, 990 or bust. Haters, flat Earthers, flyover states residers… please down vote my post.
Got a time machine? While I agree the 990 Pro for $14 more might be worth it to some, that deal isn't available anymore. Not to mention, until Direct Storage is finally implemented into games, the speed difference will be negligible for the vast majority of users. Hell, even a SATA drive won't be noticeably slower for most users, unless they're doing heavy professional work or regularly transferring large files between drives.

Truth be told. 980 is still a solid option.

Yeah, they seem to be dragging their feet.
