Ditto this comment. For some reason I have been around Dell servers probably more than any other make for the last 5-6 years. In that time I can tell you I have seen one RAID card and one hard drive (Fujitsu - but sold through Dell) fail. This was not on the same server. Oh, also one DLT changer ate a tape and had to be replaced.
Four hour service is nice and reasonably priced. The above DLT changer had this and I had a replacement in hand in about 90 minutes. Not bad. On a slightly different note, do not consider Dell Inspiron laptops for anything other than target practice. In my experience there has been not been a more problematic laptop produced.

Their support is decent. The only problems were with the remote assist cards with Netware 5. I'd pay for the 4hr response time if it's an important server with any vendor. I'm using Compaq/HP now and they are also fine. -----Original Message----- From: Cooke, Brian [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Friday, June 27, 2003 2:40 PM To: Exchange Discussions Subject: OT: Server Feedback All, We're looking at our options for a new exchange server. On the hardware side of things we're leaning towards Dell. We have never used Dell before though, so I was curious if any one has any feedback as far as Dell servers are concerned and how their support is? Thanks in advance for all your responses.
