What this item is
The Samsung PM983 960GB NVMe M.2 is a 960GB enterprise SSD on a PCIe/NVMe M.2 22110 interface. Enterprise flash holds value on the used market: the endurance headroom that outlasts a typical deployment is still there when it reaches us. 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. Look for markings such as MZ1LB960HAJQ on the label.

Questions
How much is a Samsung PM983 960GB NVMe M.2 worth in 2026?
Our current indicative payout is $55-$68 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 shows what we actually paid over the trailing 30 days.
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 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.
