The risk of losing money on an investment in server equipment, that will eventually need replacing anyway, by waiting until the last minute to recycle is a harsh reality for companies relying on major server systems. To protect against this, it’s wise for businesses to consider upgrading server equipment before multiple later versions are released and the current equipment is devaluated. Not only does this safeguard a business’s value recovery for the old equipment, but it also guarantees that the equipment will be responsibly disposed of and avoids contributing to the growing problem of electronic waste.

Enabling an R2 Certified Electronics Recycler to de-install and buy old processors while they still have worth, can help you recover value from the equipment. In contrast, waiting too long before recycling, can cost your company money to dispose of it, and you will recover no value from the equipment. Businesses can keep up with these trends by closely following prospective releases and market patterns, ensuring a more reliable, economically sound plan for their server equipment before it reaches end-of-life status.
