HOW TO GET THE BEST VALUE FOR YOUR SHB SOLUTIONS SERVER AND STORAGE EQUIPMENT.
We are often approached by companies and individuals with shb solutions equipment. Of course, they want the best price possible, but how can this be achieved?
Most importantly, get as much detail as possible about your kit in an easy-to-read format. Of course. You’d be surprised how many people ask, “I have a Dell R720 for sale, how much can I bid on it?”
Most of the server’s value is usually in the parts, not the chassis. So start by listing your server model and processor. If the processor is V1, V2, V3, etc., it indicates that the new model is worth four times the value of the old model.
Then list the RAM. Ideally list the part code and size of each stick of RAM. If your server has 64GB of RAM and 2 x 32GB sticks, they are worth much more than 8 x 8GB sticks!
Since the HDD is in a caddy, please list the part code of the caddy and the size and speed of the drive. Also, if you wish to erase the data on the HDD, please contact us as it will be charged. Finally, note any additional features such as network cards, SSDs, or software. We aim to provide a competitive quote within 24 hours at the earliest.
As a general rule, servers that are 5+ years old aren’t worth much, and servers that are 7+ years old probably won’t make an offer. We buy and sell servers. No junk service. So tell us a little bit about you and your gear.
