Meaning forget it? Or is there something I've been bias about with geeksquad having an old buddy who would fry his TV's, put AOL disks in DVD's and Games and sell them to others and nevermind when he was working for them. Plus how does one refurbish a SSD beyond putting new storage chips on the PCB or controller/DDR if not a firmware flash to begin with. Thanks

They don't refurbish them. They basically test them and make sure they work and resell. It's a nicer way of saying "open-box" without saying open box
In for 1. Similar deal about 5 or 6 months ago and I got one then for a game drive on my pc. It has been solid and problem-free and I've been extremely happy with the performance. I got the same benchmarks as advertised. This time I'm buying one for my ps5.

definitely check with crystaldiskinfo for TBW. I got some geek squad refurb 970 EVO 2TB Nvme, and one had around 300TBW on it even though it said it was only powered on for around 15 days. So just make sure. I say anything less than 5TBW should be good to go. Anymore, then you question if it's really a fair use of open box and might consider returns. Note WD SN850 2TB is 239 on amazon and occasionally goes down to $233. The 980 Pro and the SN850 trade blows so I would say they are essentially the same though the 980 Pro does have Samsung magician and migration software which is makes upgrades more seamless.
