I know they said they would contact me once they knew more of what was really causing the issues... but 4 hours to do that is more then enough... CHANGE THE HDD and copy everything there... then recover the disk and put it back (or not)

my server is down for over 7 hours and no idea when it will come back online...

what should I do?!
Depends while it's down? Well they should contact you right away but some problems are internal from the server usage or the server is broke and requires to be fixed or you moved to anew servers.

For communication, a couple hours or less, for the fix 5 minutes to 24 hours.
