       Why are we doing firmware updates on our hard drives? Am I just out of touch, because I've never needed to do that in my entire life, until now with Samsung NVME. And I don't really trust that it's not simply hiding a hardware problem so they can drag the device past the warranty finish line.

       When I sent them a drive with SMART issues, I expected to receive a different device back, not for them to update the firmware and delete the SMART records.

       I know that Smasnug is using AI to answer their emails because they replied to my email with their own name in the opening
