That sounds familiar. We had a disk drive fail on our 520 late last
year. The 520 was sitting on the floor and the CE said it looked like
it had a lot of dust around the filters. We moved it off of the floor
(which is, also, raised) on to a desk. The filters do look a lot
cleaner; we'll just have to wait and see.

I usually recommend our customers to designate a server room, install
an AC with appropriate air filters and install a rack for all
equipment and servers, so that this scenario doesn't happen.

The death of every expensive piece of IT equipment is carpet or an
ordinary office (even worse if smoking is allowed).
