Direct Technical Assistance
Work directly with the TekBoost team for hardware questions, compatibility concerns, upgrade planning, and infrastructure support.
Two Teams, Two Different Questions
Buying direct means you reach people rather than a form queue — but which people depends on where you are in the process.
Before the order: sales engineers
Our sales team are sales engineers and they provide pre-sale configuration help. Bring the workload and the constraints rather than a finished parts list, and they can work through which platform fits, what it supports, and what a complete system needs to include.
After the order: technical support
Our support team provides technical support, troubleshooting assistance and setup help for equipment purchased through TekBoost, through the Help Desk. Warranty claims and returns are reviewed separately by the admin team.
What Happens To Drives Before Resale
Drives are wiped as they come into stock, as part of how TekBoost prepares incoming inventory. If you are sending equipment to us and have data-handling requirements of your own, raise them before anything ships — see the notes on the sell-to-us page.

Direct Purchasing Supports Better Long-Term Value
Rather than increasing marketplace pricing, TekBoost provides enhanced warranty benefits and enterprise support to customers who purchase directly.
What Makes Direct Purchasing Different?
Direct TekBoost customers receive access to additional business-focused services and support options not typically available through marketplaces.
Who Benefits Most From Direct Purchasing?
Direct TekBoost purchasing is designed for organizations that need more than standard online ordering.
Marketplace Orders Vs Direct Orders
TekBoost maintains competitive marketplace pricing while reserving enhanced warranty benefits and enterprise purchasing advantages for direct business relationships.
- Marketplace purchases include standard warranty coverage
- Direct purchases include enhanced warranty benefits
- Direct customers receive stronger procurement assistance
- Custom quoting and project assistance available
- Business-focused support for larger deployments and recurring orders
Server requirements and quote comparison worksheet
A useful quote starts with the workload, the installation site and the components you need. Copy the questions below into your project notes, then use the same requirements when comparing suppliers.
1. Describe the job before choosing the parts
- Workload: Which applications, operating system and version will run? How many users or virtual machines, and which jobs run at the same time?
- Evidence: What is slow or full today? Share measured CPU, memory and storage use if available, plus the growth you expect. Mark estimates as estimates.
- Storage: How much usable capacity is needed after the planned redundancy? State drive type, workload and backup requirements separately.
- Installation: Rack or tower, available rack depth, power connections, network speed and connector type, noise restrictions and any required GPU or expansion cards.
- Project limits: Quantity, target delivery date, budget and which requirements are essential versus optional.
Use the RAM Advisor, Storage & RAID Advisor and GPU Advisor to prepare questions. Review exact model documentation in the Technical Center; platform support does not mean a component is installed.
2. Compare the selected configuration
CTO prices are starting prices. Your selections determine the installed components and final price. Compare quotes with the same required configuration and scope.
| Area | Written detail to request |
|---|---|
| Core hardware | Exact chassis and backplane, CPU model and count, installed RAM capacity and module layout. |
| Storage path | Drive count and capacity, controller or HBA, required cables and carriers, and intended usable capacity. |
| Connections | Network card, port type, required optics or cables, power supplies, power cords and rails. |
| Software and service | Licenses and management features included, compatibility questions, applicable warranty terms and the support contact. |
| Delivery and changes | Availability, shipping and tax, quote validity, delivery estimate and how proposed substitutions will be approved. |
3. Put the prices on the same basis
Illustrative example, not a TekBoost offer: Quote A is $1,200 but needs $200 in required accessories and $100 shipping: $1,500 before tax. Quote B is $1,450 including those accessories and shipping. On that stated scope, B is $50 less. Confirm equivalent components, condition and coverage before choosing.
Compare the configured hardware total plus required accessories, licenses, delivery and applicable tax. Keep estimated operating costs separate and state their assumptions. A lower advertised starting price alone does not establish the lower project cost.
For MSPs and repeat deployments
Specify whether identical part numbers are essential or equivalent parts are acceptable. Record an approved component list, permitted substitutions, quantities by site and delivery priorities. Ask what can be held consistent across later orders; do not assume future inventory will match today's quote.
Bring this worksheet to a quote request. For pre-sale and post-sale contact routes, see Technical Support. Read the applicable warranty, returns and shipping terms alongside the quote.
