Returns

Your Spectra Logic Technical Support representative may ask you to return a problem component to Spectra Logic for servicing and failure analysis. After you complete a replacement procedure, return the defective part using ALL the packaging that the replacement part arrived in (including any anti-static bags or foam inserts).

Severe damage can occur if the component is not packaged correctly. You may be Caution invoiced if it is damaged due to improper or insufficient packaging.

Use the return label and instructions that were included with the replacement part when preparing to ship the component you are returning. If you cannot locate these, contact Spectra Logic for another copy (see Contacting Spectra Logic on page 4). The return label and RMA printed on it are used to associate the returned component with your account. To avoid being invoiced for failure to return the component, do not ship the component back to Spectra Logic without the RMA return label.
