Oh I know all about hardware failures.
You're right... they do happen, and that's why I'm with SM...
So far I've gotten great service with them, and being a company that acctually has an SLA, and managed options... well they've got my business till they majorly screw something up.

I moved from ev1 because of crappy service and the whole SCO disgust.
