How to check warranty status

typically if the drive was shipped in the machine it is sold as OEM and the machine manufacturer is responsible for the warranty. it sounds like you are in a bit of a unique situation as the machine is a non SSD part number host machine. you can try contacting sandisk support and see if they can work with you on the warranty or go back to amazon as the product you purchased was not as described. amazon has great customer service and may take care of the issue for you.
