Professional storage buyback with certified data erasure
In accordance with NIST SP 800-88 and DIN 66399
When selling storage infrastructure, the irreversible erasure of sensitive company data is the most critical aspect. IT-RESELL.COM offers you a seamless, audit-proof process for this: every storage medium – whether SSD, HDD or NVMe – undergoes certified data erasure in accordance with NIST SP 800-88 (Rev. 2) – on request in line with your country’s erasure standard – with an erasure certificate for each storage device.
Unlike simple formatting, we use certified erasure procedures to ensure that data is erased even at the deepest hardware level. Once the process is complete, you will receive an individual erasure certificate for each storage device. With this audit-proof evidence, you can document your erasure obligations as the controller under the GDPR – an essential document for your compliance audits. Storage devices that cannot be erased due to a defect are physically destroyed in accordance with DIN 66399 / ISO/IEC 21964. With us, you can turn your old storage capacity into cash without compromising on security.
Reuse instead of disposal of your storage systems
Refurbishment, remarketing and recycling
After you sell your used storage systems to IT-RESELL.COM, we refurbish fully functional storage hardware through professional IT refurbishment and remarket it instead of scrapping it prematurely. This way, hard drives, controllers and enclosures continue to be used. Should individual components no longer be suitable for technical reuse, we separate them properly and send them for recycling in accordance with legal requirements.
Upon completion of the project, you will receive a reporting document stating the number of refurbished and recycled devices, a CO₂ certificate specifically showing the emissions saved compared to new production, and the erasure certificates for each storage device. You can use these documents directly for your CSR reporting, ESG statements or audits.
Why selling used storage systems pays off in the long term
IT-RESELL.COM – your B2B partner for the buyback of used storage systems
The sale of used storage systems offers companies a strategic opportunity to optimise their IT infrastructure economically. Instead of letting obsolete storage systems gather dust, selling them frees up capital for new investments. We buy back your decommissioned hardware on fair terms and handle the entire process – from the initial valuation and collection through to payment. This way, you benefit from a full-service approach.
In addition to the financial aspect, you relieve your internal resources: maintenance and storage costs for old equipment disappear, inventory management becomes simpler, and outdated hardware containing sensitive data leaves your premises in a controlled manner. A dedicated contact person is on hand to assist you throughout the entire process. At the end, you receive the reporting document, the CO₂ certificate and the erasure certificates in one package – for your records and your balance sheet.

We erase every single storage device in a storage system – regardless of which RAID group or pool it was part of. HDDs, SSDs and NVMe drives are erased using certified erasure software in accordance with NIST SP 800-88 (Rev. 2) and IEEE 2883 – and, on request, in line with your country’s erasure standard. Every erasure is documented, and you will receive an audit-proof erasure certificate for each storage device, including its serial number. Storage devices that cannot be erased due to a defect are physically destroyed in accordance with DIN 66399 / ISO/IEC 21964.
Yes. In addition to complete SAN environments, we also buy back individual NAS systems, for example from Synology or QNAP, as well as expansion units and disk shelves. We also assess hard drives and SSDs removed from storage systems. Their value depends mainly on capacity, interface (SAS, SATA, NVMe), vendor compatibility and condition. Send us your list and we will prepare a quote for you.
Yes! We also assess EOL (End-of-Life) and EOS (End-of-Sale) hardware – older storage generations are in demand, for example as spare parts for existing installations. We examine faulty systems on a case-by-case basis – components such as controllers, power supplies, fan modules, drives or expansion units can often still be reused.
Yes, we collect your storage systems from your premises anywhere in the EU – from a single NAS in the office to a complete SAN environment in the data centre. On request, we can also take care of professional packaging. Logistics and transport costs are already included in our service.
