In my experience some things are best new. To replace this unit with a
second-hand one may invite trouble. The one you have may perform better.

If you have a problem already, a used, secind hand unit might be a get-by until
you can get a new one. But as a preventive measure, go for the new one, since
avoidance of problems is the goal.
