Samsung did the same damn thing to me before the AI craze. Apparently the S/N of one of the 2 970’s I bought from Amazon indicated a non-USA region. Entirely indistinguishable to consumers. Warranty denied.
Never bought another Samsung NVMe since 2019.
that would be the fault of amazon’s genius idea of mixing inventory from multiple sellers and suppliers together.
Yeah, you can’t trust Amazon to not mix stock from various sources. Though with any product with verifiable serial numbers, I always verify them as soon as I receive them. Too much counterfeiting which is why they’re verifiable in the first place.
Tbh I wanted to boycott Samsung after They got rid of bootloader unlocking.
we’ve been through similar bullshit here. we just cut out those companies and never again do we buy from them, for ourselves or our clients.
