Hi folks,
on the 9th I bought a new PC finally. Since then this machine is no joy. It was advertized as having a m.2 SSD in it. The booting and everything was similar to a normal HDD. So I opened the casing and to my surprise, no m.2 SSD in sight. The bios only showed a regular HDD as the boot drive.
#1 Back to the dealer
1st technitian was surprised too. Funny thing is, this machine was not surpose to have a m.2 sdd anyway. They don't produce them like that and shortly after their website was fixed. Anyway, as a move of showing support, they put in a m.2 SSD into a new machine, installed the OS and gave that other PC to me and said goodbye.
Back home the machine was constanly freezing. Sometimes 3x a day, sometimes you could work 2-3 days in the row. It is running an AMD Ryzen 5 2400G and I read a lot about freezing then in the internet regarding RYZEN CPUs and Windows 10. One day it didn't boot, the screen stayed black.
#2 Back to the dealer
I reported the problems, mentioned that the m.2 SDD board is slighty bend because how is its connected on the motherboard, which imho could never be good for an electronic device.
After 4 days I got it back, the stated that the m.2 SDD was faulty and they exchanged it.
Back home first look into the case showed a still bend SSD. To bad I didn't mark it.
Of course, it took only 4 hours of simply file copying from the NAS to that PC that it freezed 4 times.
The last time I had HWI64 running and you could see that the SSD was running at 100% but there was nothing going on. The system frooze again. Back to the dealer the next day.
#3 Back to the dealer
They were surprised but checked it. After 3 days I got a call yesterday, stating that the m.2 SSD was faulty and they exchanged it. Riiighht.
I am going to pick it up today and I have a slight feeling that this will haunt me again
