The value of a renewed server

Installing a server for your home network can deliver more data storage, a centralized file system, and additional backup security. However, when the cost of a new device is too pricey, a renewed server is a cost-effective option.

A renewed server is a used device that has been refurbished to ensure it will deliver a certain standard of quality and reliability. While you likely won’t get a machine with the absolute latest bells and whistles, you can expect a renewed server to offer excellent performance and even better value.

To find a great deal on a renewed server, visit the Dell Refurbished Store at DellRefurbished.com. Our online store is the premier source for off-lease servers, laptops, desktops, workstations, and all-in-one Dell computers that have been refurbished and renewed by our team of expert technicians. These used PC devices may show a little wear and tear, but our stringent refurbishment process ensures they are fully functional. When you buy refurbished computer equipment from Dell, you’re getting quality equipment at a great price while helping the planet by preventing used electronics from being sent to landfills.

What is a renewed server, exactly?

A renewed server from Dell is a device that was previously leased to one of our corporate customers, typically for a period of 2 to 4 years. When the lease ends and the customer returns the equipment, we inspect it closely to see if it is eligible for our refurbishment program. We choose to refurbish only the highest quality systems, and we recycle all other computers that are returned to us.

Here’s what you get with a renewed server:

  • A completely refurbished machine: Each server and computer refurbished by Dell goes through a comprehensive process of refurbishment to restore it to the highest standards of quality and reliability. After a thorough inspection and testing, we repair or replace any components that do not meet our high standards. We remove all of the previous user’s data and files by performing a full data wipe, and we restore everything to the original factory settings. After closely examining the exterior of the machine, we give it a cosmetic grade based on how much damage is visible on the machine.
  • Some wear and tear: Our renewed servers and other computers may have a few scratches or other cosmetic blemishes. However, these imperfections will not affect the performance of the machine.
  • A device that’s ready to go: Because our renewed servers are rigorously tested with their existing components, we are unable to customize or upgrade them before they are shipped to you.

The advantages of buying refurbished computers

Buying a renewed server from Dell offers several significant benefits over purchasing brand-new equipment.

  • Cost savings: The biggest advantage of a renewed server is the low price point. Because our refurbished equipment is usually priced hundreds of dollars lower than new machines offering similar performance, you can save a significant amount of money.
  • More power: Alternately, for the cost of a new server, you can get a device with more features and higher performance.
  • Well-known equipment: Dell renewed servers are typically models that have been around for a year or two. That means you’ll find lots of user reviews and industry documentation detailing what people like about the devices and how well they perform over time. This information can offer peace of mind that you’re investing in equipment of high quality.
  • A greener electronics option: Purchasing refurbished computer equipment like renewed servers is a great way of helping the planet by reducing electronic waste and conserving the materials required to make new computers.

All the fine print on your renewed server

Your renewed server from the Dell Refurbished Store is backed by one of the leading manufacturers of consumer electronics. Your purchase comes with:

  • A generous warranty: We stand behind every renewed server we sell with a 100-day limited warranty that covers defects in materials and workmanship. This warranty can generally be extended to one year at checkout for an additional cost.
  • Customer support from a U.S.-based team: The warranties on our rebuilt computer equipment are backed by a U.S.-based customer service team that provides support whenever you need it.
  • Returns within 30 days: You may return a renewed server from Dell within 30 days of the date on the invoice to obtain store credit, minus any shipping and handling charges.

Why Dell refurbishes computers

At Dell, we refurbish or recycle 100% of the systems that are returned to us as part of our efforts to make more sustainable choices around the manufacture and use of electronics. By buying rebuilt PC computers and servers, you’re helping us to keep thousands of tons of electronics out of landfills each year. We also offer programs for recycled equipment, and by 2030 will reuse or recycle an equivalent product for every product a customer buys.
