What this item is

The Kioxia CM6-R 7.68TB NVMe U.3 is a 7.68TB enterprise SSD on a PCIe/NVMe U.3 interface. Because these carry high write-endurance ratings, a decommissioned unit usually has most of its life left — which is exactly why they resell well. We grade each one from its own SMART data — life remaining, reallocated sectors, power-on hours — not from your description, and erase it to NIST 800-88 with a free certificate before it moves on. Common part numbers include KCM61RUL7T68.

How it works

  1. Firm quote by email within 4 business hours (7 days a week, 7am–8pm ET).
  2. Ship free with our prepaid label — postmark within your lock window.
  3. Paid by Zelle, PayPal, or check within 48 hours of testing.

If testing disagrees with your description, you get photo evidence and a choice: revised offer or free return. Every SSD and laptop is erased to NIST 800-88 and you get the certificate by email — free, automatic, every time.

Questions

How much is a Kioxia CM6-R 7.68TB NVMe U.3 worth in 2026?

Our current indicative payout is $360-$476 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 Kioxia 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.
