Refurbished IT Hardware

The Smart Way to Upgrade Your IT Infrastructure

Quality refurbished IT hardware offers significant cost savings without compromising on performance or reliability. Our expertly restored equipment provides a sustainable and budget-friendly alternative to new hardware.

Enlivened Tech is dedicated to providing businesses with top-tier, certified refurbished solutions, helping you optimize your IT budget while still accessing the dependable technology essential for your operations. 

Why Choose Refurbished Over New?

Cost Savings

  • Lower Purchase Price: Refurbished units often sell for 30–60% less than equivalent new models, freeing up budget for other priorities.

  • Reduced Total Cost of Ownership: Electronics depreciate steepest in the first year; buying refurbished lets someone else absorb that initial drop in value.

Eco‑Friendliness & Sustainability

  • Extended Product Lifespan:  Refurbishing keeps hardware in circulation longer, reducing e‑waste and the demand for raw materials.

  • Smaller Carbon Footprint: Manufacturing new servers, laptops, or networking gear consumes substantial energy and resources; reusing existing units conserves both.

Access to Certified Quality

  • Rigorous Testing & Reconditioning:  We run complete diagnostics, replace faulty components, and restore devices to “like‑new” performance levels.

  • Warranty Protection: We back refurbished hardware with warranties (often 90 days to 1 year) and service‑level agreements comparable to new‑product guarantees.

Faster Availability

  • Immediate Stock:  Discontinued or end‑of‑life models can still be sourced as refurbished, allowing you to maintain the same make and model without waiting on new‑product runs.

  • Avoid Supply‑Chain Delays: During chip shortages or high demand, refurbished gear may be more readily available than new units.

Business‑Grade Hardware at Consumer‑Level Prices

  • High‑End Options: You can often afford powerful servers, storage arrays, or networking switches refurbished for a fraction of their original sticker price—opening doors to capabilities that might otherwise be out of budget.

Flexibility & Scalability

  • Try Before You Expand: If you’re piloting a new hardware platform or software stack, starting with refurbished units lets you validate performance without committing to full MSRP.

  • Incremental Upgrades: As needs grow, you can augment your fleet cost‑effectively, avoiding large upfront capital expenditures.

How Our Refurbishing Process Works

1. Intake & Inspection

  • Receive the unit: We get computers from lease returns and corporate tech refreshes.

  • Visual check: We look for obvious damage—cracks, missing parts, heavy scratches.

2. Data Wipe & Security

  • Erase hard drives: All previous data is securely wiped, or the drive is replaced.

  • Security check: Ensures no malware or unwanted software remains.

3. Disassembly & Cleaning

  • Open it up: All covers are removed to get inside the case or chassis.

  • Dust removal: Compressed air and brushes remove dust on fans, heatsinks, and boards.

  • Deep clean: Exterior surfaces, ports, and connectors get cleaned.

4. Component Testing & Replacement

  • Test electronics: RAM, CPU, motherboard, and power supply are each tested.

  • Replace worn parts: Any failing components (like batteries, hard drives, or fans) are swapped for new or like‑new parts.

5. Firmware & Software Updates

  • BIOS/firmware: Updated to the latest stable version for security and compatibility.

  • Drivers and OS install: The drivers are installed, and the operating system (Windows, Linux, etc.) is freshly installed or reset to factory settings.

6. Quality Assurance Testing

  • Performance tests: Run diagnostics to confirm that CPU, memory, disk, and graphics perform correctly under load.

  • Stress testing: Let it run demanding tasks for a set time to catch any intermittent issues.

7. Final Assembly & Cosmetic Touch‑Ups

  • Reassemble: All parts are put back together, screws tightened, cables secured.

  • Cosmetic fix: Light surface blemishes might be buffed out; branding stickers reapplied.

Helping Customers Do More with Less

Cost-Effective Refresh, Responsible Results
An organization required a computer refresh to upgrade its operating system but faced budgetary constraints. We facilitated an upgrade using IT hardware that was only three years old, saving them over half the cost of purchasing new devices. Additionally, we responsibly handled their retired equipment by wiping all data and providing them with $45,000 credit towards their next IT hardware purchase.
