I bought n PS13 last year for a specific job. It was used little as the job is slow to get going but I have already entered enough data related to the job that i cannot just casually run a risk of it getting lost or in someone else's hands.
Anyway, the motherboard has possibly cooked itself (this was diagnosed over the phone so I have my doubts). Since I was told that my warranty included "on site service" I thought all was well and good. But, of course, Dell started coming up with excuses one after the other. Finally they just sent me a used, errr, "reconditioned" machine. Fine. But I still have to transfer the data to the new machine (supposedly identical) and wipe the old drive.
Or....
I started to think,"why not just swap SSD's and send them back the old machine with the new HD? I did do that back around 2002 or 3 without issue with a pair of Dell desktops. Both machines booted up right away never noticed a problem.
Still, it just seems too easy. Also it looks like I'm going to have to buy a new cable to copy the existing SSD to my back up drive or just this computer.
Any opinions? Thanks
