Limitation Third parties cannot re-license the system. When you hook up the system, and call EMC support to bring it online, they will still show the serial as being registered to original purchaser, and likely decline your support coverage.
Limitation Any third party claiming there is factory warranty left on the machine is simply not telling the truth. Even if it is newer, the system is not registered to you, and you are not able to transfer support/warranty to your organization without significant relicensing fees.
Precaution Who are you buying from? Many fly-bynight IT resellers, or eBay sellers obtain their inventory through IT salvage, or liquidations. Their Price may look appealing, but they likely do not have the proper test environment available to ensure the system meets operational quality standards.
Precaution Check the details. Often, there are no returns on used equipment, simply because it is configure-to-order. Make sure you have all the specifications you need prior to ordering. If the organization is reputable, they should be able to help you find and configure what you need.
Bonus It is always a best-practice to order from an organization who will offer on-going maintenance on the system, effectively standing behind the product for years to come. If they are responsible for fixing it, it’s likely they won’t sell you a scrap quality storage system.
