Hot Hardware Advisory
    Replace Your older Xserve RAID's Immediately

A valued Apple reseller has advised the following...... When they were introduced years ago, the Apple Xserve RAID was a breakthrough in SAN RAID price and performance. Most other SAN RAID products of the time were significantly more expensive. Fast forward to today. Untold thousands of Apple Xserve SAN RAID's have been deployed and are in use across the world today. And many facilities still rely on these machines to safely store their critical media and archives. It is our opinion these older devices should be replaced as soon as possible.

 

One of the most important aspects of using any RAID device is the ability to replace a failed hard drive and restore a RAID 5 volume to full status. You can lose one hard drive in a RAID 5 and have a degraded volume, but if you lose another you have lost all your data. It is not recoverable. Our recent checks have determined there are no further Apple Drive Modules being manufactured. Further, there are essentially zero remaining drives available as "stock" within the distribution channel (meaning there are none sitting "on a shelf" which can be overnighted to clients...).

Additionally, anecdotal checks have also determined that stocks of Apple Drive Modules available for warranty replacement via AppleCare are fully depleted. If you have an older Xserve RAID covered under an AppleCare agreement, there is no guarantee that you can get a replacement drive if you have a failure. if you don't have multiple spare drives on hand, there will come a time when your drives will begin to fail and you won't have an option for data recovery. One of our contacts has indicated they have seen failure rates of one drive per week in some of their oldest Xserve RAID systems. These folks are actively looking to migrate to a new storage platform.

What are the Best Options for Replacing These Older Systems?
