UK buyer FAQ
Questions to settle before sample approval and order release.
Should we specify HDD or portable SSD?
Base the decision on workload, capacity, handling risk, host path and cost. The completed enclosure, cable and formatting should be tested together.
Does StorFlux ship from the UK?

What is the minimum order quantity?
MOQ depends on the product platform, capacity, branding, packaging and customisation and is confirmed for the selected configuration.
Can we review a representative sample?
