This POS that apple have sold me has had to have an entire new lid/screen assembly and also had a catastrophic failure of the logic board and CPU. When this went in for repair they called me to say the SSD is also dead. The SSD is a 240gb Vertex 2 which has worked flawlessly for 2 years in that laptop.
They claim that its a coincidence that the SSD is dead! but because its 3rd party they wont replace the SSD.
Its clear to me that the either the MBP has destroyed the SSD when the logic board and CPU died. Or that the "Genius" has destroyed it while fixing it. When they fixed another MBP a couple of years ago they managed to put a thumb sized dent in the alum chassis they were so heavy handed when fixing it.
So basically i know from working on PC's that when a mobo fails it can take out the CPU and HDD's i have seen it first hand. The mobo regulates power and just about everything else and when something goes bad then it can take out everything. I also know the Genius squad also damage stuff when fixing them.
So everything considered im 99% sure its either the MBP or the Genius that broke the SSD.
i live in the UK and have the 3yr applecare.
Whats everyone elses opinion on this?
