The astronomical sum though covers how many years? And that's the rub. As they age of course the odds of failure (or here wearout) increase. So I think the MMC is the right answer.

I remember having to report serial numbers of memory features and disk units as well. Pain in the backside!

Those aren't the only two choices. Another choice would be to charge an

I do remember having to report in every little thing on old hardware
(maybe back in S/36 days) and each part affected maintenance. And you're

paperwork.
