Maintenance on NS20 if add second hand disks

Hi,

    The company I work with have 2 x CX4-120's and a Celerra NS20.  We will continue to spend when necessary on the CX4-120's however we want to try minimise spending on the NS20. Because there is quite a lot of 2nd hand gear on ebay (etc), I was curious of the following:

If we get a maintenance contract on the NS20 to just cover the primary DAE (DAE0), Data Movers, control station and disks in DAE0 and then attach a 2nd DAE we have purchased and filled with disks, will our maintenance still be valid?

(Please don't tell me I'm cheap.....that is our mission with the NS20...and I know the 2nd hand gear needs to be compatible with the NS20...I know that)

Thanks,

            David
