Written by Mingzhi Lin | Sep 30, 2025 8:17:33 AM

Yes, we offer a comprehensive hardware replacement service. The speed and nature of this service depend on whether you are using our included default support or have upgraded to a paid Service Level Agreement (SLA).

Default Support (Included with all servers)

Every NovoServe server comes with our standard, best-effort support.

  • Service: If a hardware component fails, our engineers will work to replace it as quickly as possible on a best-effort basis.

  • Guarantee: There is no contractually guaranteed timeframe for replacement under this default level.

This level of service is sufficient for most customer needs.

Paid SLA

For mission-critical servers where uptime is paramount, a paid SLA provides a contractually guaranteed hardware replacement time. The speed of the replacement is determined by the SLA level you choose.

  • Service: When our engineers identify a faulty component, we guarantee to physically replace it within the timeframe specified by your SLA.

  • SLA Levels & Timelines:

    • Standard: Next Business Day

    • Associate: 4 Business Hours

    • Advanced: 9 Hours

    • Strategic: 6 Hours

    • Elite: 3 Hours

  • Covered Components: This guarantee applies to standard server components, including Chassis, HDDs, RAM, CPU, NICs, GPUs, and RAID controllers.
