It should yes. I would do a clean install

1. You can get an apprpriate USB enclosure:

- If it's a SATA drive get a SATA enclosure
- If it's an NVMe drive, get a NVMe enclosure
- Or if you don't know or don't want to take any risks, get a SATA + NVMe enclosure. The very latest enclosures with for instance the Realtek RTL9210B have this functionality.

Alternatively if you already have an external drive with enough storage capacity you can write an image of the (whole) SSD (not just the C: partition) to that drive, swap the drives and restore the image to the new drive.

Samsung migration work with an enclosure via USB ?
