How to Buy Used Server Equipment

As mentioned in one of our earlier posts, purchasing a used / refurbished equipment can offer significant savings – read the full article here: Refurb vs New IT Hardware.

This post explains what you need to look out for when buying used server equipment.

– Check the server rack size and features: Ensure the server has a rack that is well built, an easy to manage cable system with plenty of good ventilation.

– In the Refurb vs New IT Hardware post, we mentioned refurbished hardware offer better warranty, support, and maintenance. As a note, you can enjoy savings of 40-60% from OEM extended warranties, support / maintenance.

– ROI: The phrase every accounting department wants to hear. You always want to make sure you are receiving a good deal on your purchase. If you’re not saving at least 30% on your used equipment, then you may want to negotiate again.
