We just bought 5 new M7is.... two months later, 3 have had their REs
RMAd with HDD failures. Needless to say we're now refusing to put
these shoddy pieces of equipment into production until we get some
sort of explanation extracted from Juniper.

This together with the absolutely awful 'product' called the J6300
(bought 3, all 3 had hardware problems and constant crashes) is
seriously turning me off Juniper.
