Hitachi VSP G-Series Maintenance — vendor-independent service for G200–G1500
We service Hitachi VSP G-Series after factory warranty and Hitachi Vantara Support — vendor-independent, with OEM FMD, disk and cache modules, SLA up to 24×7×4. Complete G family: G200-G800 (Gen1), G350-G900 (Gen2), G1000/G1500 (high-end). 30 to 60 percent below Hitachi list price, up to 70 percent on EOSL models.
Which VSP G models we service
The VSP G-Series is Hitachi's hybrid backbone — block storage with FMD (Flash Module Drive) and SAS drives in mixed populations. Three generations coexist in DACH data centers: G200-G800 (released 2014, many already EOSL), G350-G900 (2018, EOSL approaching), G1000/G1500 (high-end 2014, EOSL reached). We service all three fully.
Why TPM maintenance instead of Hitachi Vantara Support
Hitachi Vantara has strategically moved away from classic hardware maintenance — today's focus is on Pentaho Analytics, Lumada software and HCI platforms. The result: renewals for older VSP G generations are often only available at rates designed to make a refresh economically more attractive. For G200-G800 (Gen1) and G1000/G1500, EOSL has long been reached. TPM is the only path to keep this hardware productive without forcing a refresh.
We stock G-specific components in depth — FMD modules of all sizes (1.6 TB to 14 TB), SAS and NL-SAS disks of all generations, cache modules, controller boards for Gen1 and Gen2, PSUs. Hitachi Storage Navigator and Hitachi Command Suite as local management tools continue to work — the software license is part of the storage system.
Generations timeline & TPM coverage
Per hardware generation: vendor phase (slate) and TechCare coverage window (teal) up to ~5 years post-OEM EOSL.

EOSL status of VSP G generations
Hitachi Vantara typically does not extend standard support for VSP G beyond 7 years. For Gen1 models (released 2014), EOSL has long been reached — renewal is often no longer available. TPM keeps this hardware productive without forcing a refresh.
| Model family | Released | OEM support ends | TPM status |
|---|---|---|---|
| VSP G200 / G400 / G600 / G800 (Gen1) | 2014 | 2021–2022 | Recommended |
| VSP G1000 / G1500 (High-End) | 2014 | 2022–2023 | Recommended |
| VSP G350 / G370 / G700 / G900 (Gen2) | 2018 | 2025–2026 | Recommended |
