Ensure the device will perform optimally while operating 24 hours per day and seven days per week. Some devices are guaranteed for 70,000 hours or more of operation. Other devices will offer two year warranties on parts and labor. The more assurance the customer has, the less likely the device will malfunction within a short period of time.
Thank you for your advice. Just now I read the warranty.

The warranty does not mention 24x7 or 70,0000 hours of operation. The warranty period is 12 months and I think this is reasonable.
One catch is that in case of repair, the customer pays the shipping costs. The Raspberry Pi I bought is only HK$280. But the shipping fee by UPS might be more than what I paid for the device!
