How much is my old IT hardware worth?
The value of your IT equipment is determined by several key factors, including:
- Brand and model: Certain brands and models retain higher residual value.
- Technical specifications and overall performance: More powerful configurations often have greater resale potential.
- Age and physical condition: Newer, well-maintained hardware typically holds more value.
- Current market demand: Prices fluctuate based on demand for specific IT assets.
We provide a free, no-obligation valuation, giving you immediate insight into the worth of your equipment. That way, you always have full transparency on your IT assets’ value.

How does data erasure work?
We use Blancco’s Data Erasure software, a globally recognized, highly secure, and certified solution. This software is certified by the Dutch General Intelligence and Security Service (AIVD) and endorsed by leading global organizations.
This method ensures complete and irreversible data removal, providing full assurance that no sensitive data remains on your old IT assets.
-
Do you collect old storage systems?
Yes, Circular IT group offers a dedicated pickup service. We securely collect and transport your old systems, computers, laptops, servers, and other IT hardware, ensuring fast and efficient handling.
-
What is NAS (Network Attached Storage)?
NAS is a centralized storage solution connected to a local area network (LAN), allowing multiple users and devices to easily store and access data via an Ethernet connection.
NAS systems are popular for their ease of use, scalability, and cost-efficiency. Need more storage? You can easily expand capacity without making major changes to your IT infrastructure.
-
What is SAN (Storage Area Network)?
A SAN is a high-performance, shared storage solution designed for fast and efficient data processing. Unlike NAS, a SAN connects multiple storage devices within a dedicated network, enabling higher performance, reliability, and scalability.
SANs are ideal for organizations handling large datasets, complex applications, and high processing demands. Additionally, they reduce the risk of system failures by offering redundant storage capabilities.
-
What is DAS (Direct Attached Storage)?
DAS refers to a storage device directly connected to a single computer or server, without using a network. This can include internal hard drives, external SSDs, USB drives, or other standalone storage devices.
DAS provides a fast and straightforward storage solution but is less flexible than NAS or SAN since other devices cannot directly access the stored data. This makes DAS particularly suitable for individual users or specific tasks where network sharing is not required.
