I believe the 980 Pro was mislabeled, its a regular 980, according to the 1 review for the listing.

How do these Geeks refurbish these things again? Do they have mini soldering irons?

good deal, bought 860 250gb refurb evos last week at $32 per.

Also, as a fyi, had great results with bestbuy refurbs in terms of TBW. So far, all (6+) have had a very low count

3,500/3000 MB/s Read/Write, 300TBW (equivalent to 600TBW for a 1TB drive), TLC, DRAM. Samsung's full-on Gen3 offering.

Yes, it's refurbished, but it's also keenly priced. My understanding is that these typically have little prior use on them.

I don't think they are actually "refurbishing" them. I think the returns that have very little use and are in decent condition are put up for sale like this. I bought a Geek Squad Refurb Powerbeats Pros a few months back and they were essentially brand new. I couldn't find any signs of wear or anything.

Agree. I think they mostly just re-box them, as you say.

Perfect for all those low-end, bargain SD laptops you want to upgrade.

Keep it cheap.

I feel like despite only having gen 3 capable hardware i should still try to buy gen 4 on the chance i decide to upgrade.

But these prices are very tempting

Yeah 1TB MSI is PCIe 4.0 with 1600TBW endurance. 1TB 970 EVO PCIe 3.0 is 600TBW. This 500gb model is 300TBW endurance.
