STORAGE BUYBACK

Sell enterprise SSDs and storage.

NVMe U.2/U.3, SAS, SATA SSDs, enterprise HDDs, and full storage arrays — with certified NIST 800-88 wipe available.

Enterprise storage still has a real secondhand market.

Enterprise SSDs are one of the categories where the used market has genuine depth: high-endurance NVMe drives from decommissioned servers are still competitive with the current generation on price per TB, and there's steady demand for both loose drives and full arrays.

Versatec buys SSDs and storage in every form — from small pulled lots to full SAN and NAS array decommissions. Where data destruction is required, we handle it under R2-compliant procedures with serialized certificates.

What we need from you

Model number and quantity is the fastest path to a quote. If you have the wipe/destruction requirements written down, send those too — that determines whether drives go through wipe or shred, which affects pricing.

Questions

Common questions about this category.

Do you wipe drives before resale?

Yes. All drives destined for resale are wiped to NIST 800-88 standards, and serialized certificates of sanitization are provided when required.

What if I need physical destruction instead of wipe?

We offer physical shred with certificates. Send the destruction requirements in the initial request and we'll quote accordingly.

Do you buy old spinning disk drives?

Yes, particularly nearline SAS and SATA enterprise disks. Consumer drives are lower priority.

Can you take drives still in the array or server?

Yes. Full array decommissions often quote better than pulled drives — less handling on both sides.

What's the minimum quantity?

No hard minimum. Bulk lots price better, but we'll quote smaller lots too.
