First I take a stance on how backing up data is a personal responsibility and how Carbonite - a data protection company -- should take the rap for losing its customer's data, then I get comments on the San Francisco Blog about it, and from some high level folks, and now a press release?  Interesting.  It means our blogs matter in the tech world after all.  Here's the release I got on Promise Technology's news about an onsight parts replacement program:





Promise  Announces New ServicePlus On-Site Parts Replacement Program for US and  Canada


  Industry leading support program expands to include on-site component  swap offering


MILPITAS, Calif., April  1, 2009 – Promise Technology Inc., a leading supplier of  sophisticated RAID storage solutions for enterprise and SMB customers,  today announced general availability of the Promise ServicePlus parts  replacement plan for their VTrak enterprise class RAID storage subsystems.  The ServicePlus program is an available upgrade to Promise’s leading  3-Year limited advanced parts replacement warranty. The ServicePlus  plan offers onsite parts replacement 24 hours a day, 7 days a week for  the existing VTrak warranty period.

The Promise ServicePlus Plan  provides for the rapid response and installation of components that  have been identified as being in a fault state. This program provides  storage administrators with the peace of mind that their storage is  protected 24x7 against component failure. Combined with Promise’s  existing 24x7 technical phone support this program is able to significantly  minimize downtime. Average response time for component replacement can  be as little as four hours in most major metropolitan areas.

“The ServicePlus program  builds upon our already best in class support program”, said Vijay  Char, Vice President of QA and Support, Promise Technology.  “Continuing  to add to our support offering is part of our commitment to providing  our customers with the best available uptime and service.”

The Promise ServicePlus plan  is available for VTrak E-Class RAID, J-Class expansion chassis and M-Class  iSCSI models in the 3U/16-bay form factor. The program is valid for  the entire 3 year VTrak standard warranty period.
