2. Changing the battery on the A1000 RAID array, which was required ever 2

Well, we've got several customers (who put out a newspaper every day using
their systems, so they do get used) who've had uptime over 500 days. The
highest I personally saw was 915ish days. I'd installed the system (e450 w/Sol
