What this item is

The Samsung PM1643a 3.84TB SAS is a 3.84TB enterprise SSD on a 12 Gb/s SAS interface. Data-center drives like this keep real resale value because most of their rated endurance is still unused when they come out of service. Every drive is graded from its measured SMART attributes rather than a description, then erased to NIST 800-88, with the erasure report on request. Look for markings such as MZILT3T8HBLS on the label.

Questions

How much is a Samsung PM1643a 3.84TB SAS worth in 2026?

Our current indicative payout is $189-$222 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 Samsung 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 before it is resold, and the erasure report covering your drives is yours on request. 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.
