We actually had a very good experience earlier with server hardware
(PowerEdge R610 and R410 systems). Helpful, proactive, dug up some
recent tech, even provided a significant amount of replacement RAM
should that have proved to be the problem (it wasn't). The storage side
of the house is an entirely different animal.
The issue BTW was ECC memory errors (disabling C-State in BIOS was the
fix).
