• Phone/Email Support M-F 7 AM - 4 PM PST
• Advance Replacement (including tape drives) - During the warranty period, Qualstar will replace a Field Replaceable Unit (FRU) once it is determined to be defective by a TSS.
The standard method of shipment for components other than complete libraries is prepaid via three-day air transportation (domestic) or Economy air transportation (international).
Priority shipping uplift options are available for purchase. An invoice will be sent to you for the FRU. An offsetting credit will be issued when the defective FRU is received by Qualstar.
• Priority Shipping
Support is obtained by contacting the Technical Support Specialist to assist with diagnosing the technical issues. A toll-free number would be provided.
