Valuation
What affects the valuation
We value from the details you send. These are the factors that move the figure for this category. No two lots are the same, so we do not publish prices.
- Type and interface
- HDD or SSD, and the interface: SATA, SAS or NVMe.
- Capacity
- Storage capacity per drive, or module size for memory.
- Form factor
- 2.5-inch, 3.5-inch, M.2 and other formats.
- Drive health
- Power-on hours and SMART status where you have them.
- New or used
- Unused spares and used parts sell into different markets.
- Quantity per part number
- Larger quantities of one part number are simpler to value.
- Memory specification
- Memory type, generation, speed, ECC or registered, and module capacity.

Data-bearing devices

Data-bearing devices in our FAQHard Drives, SSDs & RAM: common questions
Do we need to tell you whether the drives contain data?
Yes. For each line, say whether the drives are wiped, unwiped or failed, and handle them under your organization's own data policy before handover. It changes what is actually being sold.
What is the best way to list drives and memory?
By part number, with a quantity for each. Without part numbers, give the type, interface, capacity and form factor for drives, and the type, generation, speed and module size for memory.
Do you buy failed or damaged drives and memory?
Yes, as well as working stock. List failed or damaged items on their own lines; for working drives, include power-on hours and SMART status if your tools report them, because health is one of the main factors in a drive's valuation.
