Q: QuestionDoes this still qualify for the Samsung factory warranty of 5 years or 1,200 TB TBW? I believe that the drive would have to get registered with Samsung under my name. Thank You

Asked 3 years ago by TsaWind.

• A:Answer With just the quickest of google searches you will find that the samsung warranty is non-transferable. Since this is a refurb drive it isn't transferable by definition. But who knows, maybe you'll get lucky and the last person never registered it so you'll be able to snake the warranty for yourself.

Q: QuestionCan these cards be utilized for desktop PC motherboards? Also since it states that they are refurbished how can you determine if they were used for crypto machine setups so I can better understand it's life expectancy?

Asked 2 years ago by DJHype.

• A:Answer So long as you have an available m.2 ssd slot or an expansion card that you can mount the drive to you can use this in a pc. Many modern motherboards these days have at least 1 m.2 ssd slot available. As for determining what it was used for, well, you can't really do that, however you can download a free program online called crystaldiskinfo and in it you can find out the "health" of your drive. The more "health" that it has the more time it has left in it for future r/w operations. I highly recommend getting this program regardless as it is an invaluable tool for ensuring the health of your hard disks.

Q: Questionis compatible with HP Laptop - Victus 15.6" Gaming Laptop - Intel Core i5-12450H - 8GB Memory - NVIDIA GeForce GTX 1650

Asked 2 years ago by JorgeTorres.

• A:Answer Yes it will fit and it's definitely not too big for laptops. My laptop is currently running 2 of these. Since it's refurbished it probably will not come in original packaging so do yourself a favor and download Samsung magician after installation. I personally use this ssd for mostly gaming and from your question it sounds like you'll be doing the same and I couldn't be any happier with it. Samsung's pro ssd's are beast when it comes to performance.
