In this video, I discuss common mistakes that people make using hardware wallets that result in their Bitcoin being stolen instantly.
When you set up a new hardware wallet, you should always generate a fresh recovery seed and then a fresh receive address. Use your old hardware wallet to sign a transaction that sends your BTC to that new fresh receive address that's controlled by the new hardware wallet.
If you input your old recovery seed into a new hardware wallet, you've basically just reconstituted your Bitcoin holdings and their private keys on that new device. This is fine if your only goal is to have a new signing device to use.
It's not fine if you are worried about your old hardware wallet and recovery seed having been compromised.
