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?

Newegg still has the MSI 1TB pcie 4 on sale for $75 after rebate. https://www.newegg.com/msi-1tb-sp...6820140013

$65 if you use codes for $10 off (SPECIALSW or SPECIAL4U). The latter worked for me.

Waste of time dealing with this, maybe it if was 15-20$

Do you have personal experience with these. I'm betting not. I have yet to come across a review stating any issues with these. I have used about 5 so far of various different sizes and all tested and worked perfectly. Most have very little if any power on hours. Absolutely cannot be beat for the price for the best drives on the market. Less than half price of new I'm in for another.

Personally I'd just spend the extra $20 and get one that's under full warranty.

They're $40 and brand new is $60.

As a secondary gaming drive, I'd absolutely do this. As a primary drive, I'd spend the extra $20 for peace of mind.

I bought a 1 TB refurbished 860 in April and it works fine. Usage on it was only a few hours when I received it.

Picked one up today. Took about 45 minutes to get it, because the Geek Squad was still working on it in the cleanroom, replacing some capacitors on the board and swapping out the controller chip.

They gave me a report that show exactly how many bad blocks they'd mapped off so they wouldn't be a future problem (423,117).

So far, looks good.

I believe Samsung has a utility. And yah, CrystalDisk should do it too.

That's a very very good deal. nvme superior to ssd. The only not to buy them over ssd is your mother board don't have the slots for them.
