The environment also benefits when you buy remanufactured equipment. The resources used in the production of electrical goods are scarce, which is also reflected in the price. If the servers are disposed of after use, a lot of valuable material is lost. However, if you buy the systems refurbished, the materials will continue to be used effectively, thus protecting the environment.

Used server systems are reliable and proven in everyday use.

When you're looking for server systems, you naturally want to buy reliable equipment. Refurbished systems are not only checked for their functionality before being sold, but they have already had a few hours of operation. This means that the respective system has been tested in everyday use. Common configuration errors or similar quirks that can occur when buying new are excluded or have been fixed in the case of used servers. You can therefore buy a device that is labeled as refurbished without hesitation.

The ecological balance of a company is becoming increasingly important. As with many other products, the production and disposal of computer and IT products represents the greatest burden on the environment. It is a matter of resources that must be conserved. Long running times of the devices have not been a problem for many years. So buying used servers is an immense gain for the environment and therefore ecologically highly recommended.

One of the most important arguments for buying a server is reliability. And this is where used servers have a special advantage: Where they are offered with hardware care packs, people are familiar with the solid series of the market and appreciate their reliability. Here it is not the quantity of sold new devices from Supermicro, IBM, HP (Proliant) & Co. that counts. What counts here are the hard disks, Intel processors, etc. that have proven themselves in tough everyday use. It is not only the experience regarding the hardware from the computer technician's point of view that counts. Today, a server is much more than just a series of powerful hard disks that have been installed with some kind of hardware à la Core, RAM, Xeon in the form of a tower or even a rack. This also applies to the "colleagues" of the systems in networks such as storage and workstation. Whether the build and equipment of IBM, Lenovo, Dell & Co. are practical can ultimately only be checked in everyday use.

It is easy to understand that people look at the size of the investment, especially when it comes to servers. Unfortunately, this is often due to the fact that the requirements for the server are underestimated. Since it operates more in the background and is not directly operated on a daily basis, the advantages and disadvantages - seemingly - do not carry as much weight. But a server that does not perform its tasks because the hardware is overloaded, for example, presents itself as a brake on entrepreneurial activity. Simply put, the server is a pain in the ass and becomes a constant nuisance. However, a server is a tool of a company and efficient tools do not attract attention.

Buying used server is a reasonable alternative in this case. It allows, for the price of a very cheap device, the purchase of a high-quality system, as known from IBM and Lenovo, Dell, Proliant and Supermicro.

If you want to buy a server because the purchase is indispensable for the company, you shouldn't agonize over the question of whether equipment or quality should be valued more highly. With a used server, both are compatible and the wallet is spared at the same time. This means that the capital commitment is considerably reduced. With a freer financial situation without long leasing periods, a company can react much more flexibly to changes. This also applies to the expansion of servers themselves. In both professional and private environments, it has been shown that a system purchased second-hand is much more likely to be adapted to new requirements than a server whose financing is far from complete.

It fits to the more flexible development of the server that used systems are immediately available. This eliminates waiting times and, above all, uncertain orders with regard to a specific model or series. What is the use of a precise system choice with regard to processors or hard disks at Xeon, IBM and so on, if then after a few weeks the feedback comes that the desired object would not be in stock. While the used competitor is already doing its job without complaint at this point, the interested party might wonder whether he should wait for the subsequent delivery or choose another product.

The drop in prices of "old" computers is not a new phenomenon, but has been widely known since the 1980s. A new series of PCs, workstations, towers, notebooks, etc. is more powerful than the older one and meets new requirements better. At the same time, the systems became and are becoming more compact and mobile (see Tower to Notebooks).Some new releases, such as the Internet for the mass market, accelerated these developments. A look at the history of printers shows that the background is more difficult. New technology, such as photo printing, became a problem for maintaining the value of printers.

Servers, as well as IT systems as a whole, including storage, workstations, racks, etc., are more or less exempt from such sometimes even fashionable trends in notebooks, PCs and printers. They basically still perform the same tasks. For this, they mainly need hard disks and processors. However, the development of both PC components is stagnating. Although performance continues to increase, their actual utility value is not developing at the same pace.

A simple example shows this: One of the most comprehensive tasks for a computer is the playback of movies including sound. Intel processors (such as Xeon for PCs and workstations) have been able to do this for several generations. In detail, the quality got even better and today you can surf the Internet on the side. But there is an almost complete lack of new development steps that make something possible that previously - for the layman - seemed unattainable (such as photo printing on vacation).

For servers in particular, this results in a situation where the drop in price is not accompanied by a drop in performance. The "technical data" often differs only slightly for servers. Buying a used server is therefore associated with an accurate ratio of price to performance.

You can save many Euros not only by buying a used server, but also by buying used storage. Among them are HP EVA, QNAP or even Netapps. Enjoy the high cost advantage by buying used storage. Used storage with an age of 2 years has a cost saving advantage of about 80 percent, which can mean a five-digit savings potential for you as a buyer. Used storage is the optimal solution for particularly short-term projects. For example, every used product is available for immediate delivery and goes directly into shipping after receipt of payment, so that every used device can be put to use within the shortest possible time, which means that in extreme cases the used server can be put to use within 24 hours.

Our pricing strategy is: buy in bulk, pass on the price advantage! We want to be your long-term partner, not raise prices at short notice in case of a supply shortage on the world market. At the same time, no one gets special prices and no pseudo-negotiating leeway is priced in: i.e. with us, every customer gets "reseller prices" and without extra negotiation directly in the store.

ServerShop24.de has been 100% specialized in used servers since 2010. No notebooks, no PCs and no Corona quick tests. We stand by our focus and are also therefore the right partner when it comes to refurbished servers.

Feel free to take a look at our Trusted Shops or Google reviews. There are even customers who dedicate an own Youtube video to their experience with our store (thank you!). We are very proud of our customers' feedback!

The faulty server will be picked up, repaired and returned to you directly.
