What this item is
Intel's DC S3520 1.6TB (SSDSC2BB016T7K) is a SATA datacenter drive from the 3D MLC era and a common pull from decommissioned Xeon fleets. SATA enterprise drives trade at a discount to NVMe, but this capacity keeps steady demand from budget server builds and cold-storage boxes. If yours are new in the wrapper, say so in the notes, because sealed drives earn above the used range. We verify health by serial before paying.

Questions
How much is a Intel DC S3520 1.6TB SATA worth in 2026?
Our current indicative payout is $53-$65 per unit in used working condition, with the firm number emailed within 4 business hours of your quote request. The range moves with the market — the Payout Index tracks the price we pay week over week.
How do you grade a used Intel SSD?
From the drive's own SMART data at intake — life remaining, reallocated sectors, power-on hours — not from the description. Grade A (≥90% life, zero reallocated) pays the full range; B pays 75%; anything failing health checks is returned or recycled free, your choice.
Is it safe to sell this drive with my data on it?
We erase every drive to NIST 800-88 Purge and email you a serialized certificate with a public verification link, free and automatic. Wiping it yourself first is encouraged too — belt and suspenders — and our guide shows how.
How fast do I actually get paid?
Zelle or PayPal within 48 hours of test completion; typical mail-to-money is 5-7 days end to end. Your quote locks before you ship, and if the market drops after we quote, we pay the quote anyway.
