average server breakdown price

Whats the average breakdown price on servers? I'm talking like blades, etc. I got like 40 now as we speak. But all missing memory and hard drives. Rest is there. So trying to figure out to ebay or shred. If shred obviously save the boards if good for resale. But need opinions. Thanks



Im talking servers like these, but lower end.

Dell PowerEdge 2950 2X Xeon Dual Core 3GHz Quad 8GB 2X Power Supply PERC5i | eBay

Around $15/unit scrapped out.

I pay .42 per lbs for servers completely intact. Price drops considerably for missing HDDs. The Hard drives are what demands a higher price for loaded servers. If they are missing them AND ram.. all you are really getting are some valuable boards, metal casing and wire.

Like I said in the avg price for tower thread, break down one and weigh all the parts and time yourself. It also depends on the prices you get for your reclaimed materials. We all have different prices.

Impossible to give an average price. There are way too many variables, size, configuration, how complete, how old, etc. I have scrapped hundreds of them, and weiged the recovered materials on many. Scrap values ranged from $10 up to $125 each on the larger servers.

He said a single blade server....Which I interpret as about 6" or less. The biggest determining factor on price is going to be if it has solid copper heat sinks or not. If not go with my $15 price.
