Windows 10: Device Manager Shows Incorrect Device ID

Hia. I recently installed a third SSD to my computer ( a Crucial MX500 2TB). Everything went smoothly, the drive behaves normal and everything seems good, however this time something weird happened with the identity on the device, it shows an incorrect model and ID in Windows Device Manager: CT512MX100. I tried using various programs to identify it, but they all gathered the info from Windows, which is not right. So I downloaded the program that came with it -- Crucial Storage Tool -- this time with success: CT2000MX500. What's odd about this is that it seems to have taken my previous SSDs identity 4 years ago, which was a 512GB SSD from Crucial actually, and applied it to this one. I can't figure out why Windows would do this and if this is something I should be worried about? If anyone have any input on this that would be great.
