Benefits of Third Party Maintenance for SUN StorageTek 400/800GB LTO TAPE FC-4GB (SL500)

Even if a manufacturer stops supporting a product, it doesn’t mean the product is useless. It still has a lot of its original value. If you still need the product to work for your business, you can keep using it by using TPM. This will help you stretch your investment and keep the product working for longer.
You may not have the money to upgrade your hardware right now. That’s okay! You can still use your old hardware with the help of TPM. This will help you make a decision about when to upgrade, and you can do it on your own timeline. You can also prepare for the transition by saving up and getting your finances in order. When you’re ready, you can buy new equipment without feeling rushed.
If you are repairing your hardware yourself, you may not have easy access to the original parts. You might have to get parts from less-than-trustworthy manufacturers. However, if you work with TPM, you will have access to trusted parts that will work with your equipment. Plus, the technicians who will be repairing your hardware are experts in the field and may be more familiar with your equipment than in-house techs.
Avoid the high prices for post-EoL OEM services by working with a TPM company. They can do the same job as the OEM but they will be much cheaper. You may also get more work done or a more personalized service with a TPM company. Plus, you can push back the cost of new equipment by using a TPM company. While an upgrade will still be necessary at some point, using a TPM company can help delay it.
TPM programs are created to focus on a company’s specific needs. They might be able to repair equipment in a way that creates as little downtime as possible or offer more encompassing services that can provide a better deal. Some TPM options, like NorthSmart, let you purchase only the services you need. You can even create a hybrid model with elements of OEM and TPM support if that’s what fits your business.
