Sorry for posting SO much about my Retina Macbook, but I tried running the terminal command to print the display model number "ioreg -lw0 | grep IODisplayEDID | sed "/[^<]*</s///" | xxd -p -r | strings -6"

and all that came back was "Color LCD" and there was no model number printed, why isn't it working, and is there any other way to check who made the screen?

    FINALLY found the correct command (ioreg -lw0 | grep \"EDID\" | sed "/[^<]*</s///" | xxd -p -r | strings -6) without the ()

    and I have both a Samsung SSD and screen. the screen is absolutely perfect so far :D
