"If you are referring to the length of time they can be covered under warranty ... the warranties can typically be extended for up to 5 years from the date of purchase - even up to 7 for some organizations, on certain machines, under certain circumstances. After 5 years, it becomes difficult, logistically, to stock enough parts to service older servers."
