- 1 Year coverage period

- Procurement-friendly add‑on SKU
- Preserve failed drives with Keep Your Drive return handling
- Support regulatory compliance with 1 Year post‑warranty retention
Control and audit sensitive media handling with a one‑year Keep Your Drive (KYD) post‑warranty add‑on. When a drive fails, Lenovo replaces it under the applicable service engagement and returns the original drive to your custody instead of retaining or destroying it. This option preserves chain of custody for regulatory compliance, forensic analysis, or corporate data‑retention policies. Purchasing a KYD add‑on simplifies procurement for assets that carry elevated data protection obligations by bundling drive retention into a single contract line item. KYD complements hardware response services by separating remediation (drive replacement) from custody decisions, reducing legal and compliance friction when decommissioning devices or investigating incidents.
Ideal For
- Regulated environments requiring custody of failed drives
- Forensic investigations needing original media return
- Enterprise asset disposition where secure disposal is mandated
- Organizations standardizing data‑retention controls post‑warranty
Why This Product
- 1Retain failed drives directly versus standard service where OEM retains media
- 2Offer documented chain‑of‑custody not provided by basic warranty
- 3Integrate with existing Lenovo support engagements for single vendor handling
- 4Lower compliance risk compared with ad‑hoc third‑party retention services
