Supply & Procurement Overview

  • Stock availability: Current inventory is held in our warehouse and ready to ship; ongoing supply is supported by rolling restocking, and we can confirm live quantities for your project timeline before you commit.
  • Batch consistency: For fleet deployments we can allocate single-batch stock with matched model and firmware family, simplifying imaging, monitoring baselines, and downstream RMA processing across your installed base.
  • Warranty & RMA: All shipments carry a full replacement warranty with a structured RMA process; defective units are handled through our wholesale RMA channel with clear turnaround targets, so resellers can honor their own end-customer warranties with confidence.
  • Lead times: In-stock orders are typically dispatched within 1–3 business days; larger project volumes may require a short allocation window, which we confirm at quotation stage.
  • Export compliance: Products carry CE, FCC, and RoHS certifications, and all shipments are accompanied by commercial invoices and packing documentation suitable for export customs clearance.
  • Suitability: Standard 3.5-inch SATA form factor compatible with mainstream SATA 6 Gb/s HBAs, servers, and JBOD enclosures — verify backplane and cabling support for high-capacity drives before rollout. The Exos enterprise line is rated for 550 TB/year workloads, suited to higher duty cycles than desktop-class nearline drives.
