Equipment upgrades happen all the time, and when they do, you may be left with valuable equipment like a Sun SPARC M4000 that your company no longer needs.  What happens to it?  More than 1600 companies large and small turn to OceanTech when they have used equipment that they no longer need.

OceanTech is an electronics recycling company based in Minneapolis that works with hundreds of companies who rely on OceanTech to help them manage the disposition of their IT assets.

What that means is that OceanTech buys used equipment, including Sun SPARC M4000 servers, which are in high demand in the downstream marketplace.

“We work with lots of small and up-and-coming businesses that need to buy used equipment to save money.  We make sure that everything we sell has been sanitized, all data has been erased, and the equipment has been serviced so it functions as it should,” says Al Sumetsky, CEO of OceanTech.

The Sun SPARC M4000 remains a popular server with high demand in the used equipment market.  OceanTech sells hundreds of used Sun SPARC M4000 servers every year and is always looking for more.

“Lots of companies are concerned with data security, but that’s where OceanTech offers the best advantage.  Our R2 certifications ensure that all data is destroyed, servers are sanitized, and certificates documenting the destruction are provided to the client,” Sumestsky says.

Sun SPARC M4000 Servers still command a premium price.  OceanTech pays two to three times more than anyone else in the electronics recycling marketplace for the Sun SPARC M4000.
