Working on a machine that BSOD’d 3-4 times a week, couldn’t find much wrong but then I saw this. An NVME drive from a company named “OEMGenuine”.
Their website 404’s, waybackmachine says it was last cached 2 years ago, and even then it was a broken Godaddy landing page.
Found in a Thinkpad purchased from Amazon, sold by a third-party reseller who “upgrades” the devices before reselling.
Machine seems just fine/stable with a credible drive in it.
What’s the craziest shady “brand” name you’ve seen in the wild?
EDIT: NEW Discovery! One of the ancient waybackmachine cached pages previously redirected to oemgenuine.NET! It’s shoddy as hell but the .net domain is still visible today! oemgenuine.net
And it’s not even that long ago their CPUs began genuinely committing
