Hey guys, I recently send my laptop in to service because it was getting an S.M.A.R.T warning at startup and then it stop working.
Just got my laptop back 1 day ago and on the report it said (exactly) "SSD REPLACED AND REIMAGED. WTP AND ADT PASSED. BIOS UPDATED."
Does this mean they replace me with a new SSD?
Because when i check the SSD info using crystaldiskinfo and i got the below:
Name: Same as pre-service
Firmware: Same as pre-service
Serial Number: Same as pre-service
Transfer Mode: Same as pre-service
Drive Letter: Same as pre-service
Total Host Read: Pre-service 1778 GB vs Post-service 1923 GB
Total Host Write: Pre-service 2031 GB vs Post-service 2973 GB
Power On Count: Pre-service 315 count vs Post-service 334 count
Power On Hours: Pre-service 698 hours vs Post-service 767 hours
Does not look like a new SSD to me, but just want to make sure.
Is this a new SSD or they simply just wipe and gave me the old SSD while wrote of as a new SSD?
Also is this even legal to do that?
