General FAQ

Do I have to create an account to purchase? No, you have the option to checkout as a guest. When you checkout as a guest you will not have the ability to use our system to lookup past orders, but can use our Track Order page for updates.

How do I return my old, dead SPS? A free return shipping label was included in the box of your new SPS unit. Simply replace your old, dead unit and place it in the same box your new one arrived in. Use the return shipping label and drop off or schedule a pickup with FedEx.

Do you offer bulk discounts? Please contact us if you’d like to make a large purchase and have a question on pricing.

Are your products used/refurbished? All of our products are listed and priced as used/refurbished items that have been fully-tested and are warrantied for 60 days. Any new product will be specially marked as such.

Where can I find NEW inventory of products you sell? The majority of products we sell are end-of-life (EOL) and no longer being manufactured. Occasionally for these products, overstock or new spares do surface, but in most instances, EOL products being advertised as new on other websites or eBay are counterfeit and will not work in your system.

For newer system products we have listed, the majority of what we sell is used/refurbished. If you need to acquire new/unused products for newer systems, please use our Part Number Request form and we can try to help you locate new stock.

Is my information safe? We never sell or transfer your information to third-parties. Visit our Privacy Policy to learn how your data is used.

The product I received doesn’t look like the product that was pictured. Various generations of hard drives, etc, may have a different look or even different colored labels. Certain generic part numbers may have multiple manufacturers (ie Seagate and Hitachi). For more information, please visit our guide to determining EMC hard drive part numbers and also our Product Substitution Policy.

Why do your EqualLogic Controllers cost more than other websites? We are the only company TRULY refurbishing EqualLogic PS4100, PS6100, PS4110, PS6110, PS6210, PS4210, PS4000, PS5000, and PS6000 series controllers.

Many companies list all of their inventory as used/refurbished, when they are doing nothing to the internal components to “refurbish” them to a like new state. In our experience, most companies are not even testing these controllers properly, as controllers with failed batteries may not show the fault until the system has been running for more than 24 hours. Their procedure is to simply plug them in, see that the system says it’s good, and list it for sale as refurbished. For more information, please refer to our guide on EqualLogic Battery Status Failed – How to Fix or Contact Us.

Purchase/Payment/Checkout

What forms of payment do you accept? We accept all major credit cards including American Express, Discover, Mastercard, and Visa.

Do you accept Purchase Orders? As a general rule, we do not accept PO’s. For certain institutions such as government agencies, schools, and large organizations, we may choose to accept a PO. Please contact us if you would like to be approved to issue PO’s.

Can I save credit card information to my account? For your safety and privacy we currently do not store payment information.
