@stephenw10 said in Jim Pingle's YouTube video on SG-4860 reset:
Yes it will have a new serial number, MAC addresses and NDI.
Yep, it did. Fortunately the failure I had was purely on the motherboard. My 128gb mSATA drive was fine. Moved it over and all booted up with the new data from the motherboard. A quick restore from the current in-use pfSense instance and all was well. I sat it on the shelf for a quick change if/when the next failure comes
I did pick-up a new exact replacement mSATA drive so I have that on the shelf now as well.
In speaking with Joshua, he did confirm with his documentation that my other SG-4860 board was indeed after the cutoff date for the clock issue. So that is nice to know.
Is there a place we can access that data or plug in a serial number and get feedback on that issue? I ask because if I have an opportunity to pick up another used SG-4860 I'd like to be able to verify it is not pre-fix before I get it. I just don't want to have to bug you or someone in Joshua's team every time a unit presents itself. If that is the preferred method, I'm fine with sending you or them a serial number every now and then, but don't want to be a pest if I can dig it out myself.

Hmm, there isn't a user interface to the serial number / date cut-off. Feel free to ping me though, there won't be that many requests.
