From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

Did you
dd
filesystems around? Unless you end up with two filesystems with the same UUID, which you can get bydd
ing them, Linux really shouldn't care one way or another what model the SSD is.I didn't, and what I read online was sometimes SSD manufacturers just get lazy with consumer products and end up assigning the same UUID to a model of SSD, and I tested this by getting an SSD from a different manufacturer and, sure enough, it worked as intended.
This might be the post I found where I figured it out at (bugzilla.kernel.org)
