What each brand pays

Brand changes what used memory is worth — Samsung sets the benchmark, then the other tier-one makers, and value brands pay a little less. We still buy every brand on this list.

Brand Indicative payout
Samsungbest price $3–$4
SK Hynix Tier-1 OEM DRAM; near-Samsung liquidity in the server channel. $3–$4
Micron Tier-1 OEM DRAM; strong data-center demand. $3–$4
Crucial Micron's retail arm — genuine Micron silicon, thinner enterprise resale. $3–$4
Kingston Reliable, high-volume module maker; softer resale premium than the OEM three. $3–$3
Corsair Enthusiast/desktop brand; limited server-channel demand. $2–$3
G.Skill Enthusiast/desktop brand; limited server-channel demand. $2–$3
ADATA Value module maker; lower used-market liquidity. $2–$3
Third-party Nemix, A-Tech, Timetec and similar third-party assemblers — we still buy, at a lower payout. $2–$3
Unknown Unbranded or unidentifiable modules; priced conservatively, still purchased. $2–$2

Ranges are non-binding and scaled from the Samsung benchmark for this exact spec — your firm quote comes by email within 4 business hours.

What this module is

An honest note on this page: 4GB DDR4 SODIMMs (Kingston KVR26S19S6/4, Samsung M471A5244CB0-CTD class) are the one corner of the DDR4 market the shortage never reached, because no current workload wants a 4GB stick. They sell only in bulk lots and pricing reflects that reality. If you have a drawer of them we will still buy the lot at a fair per-stick number, which beats letting working memory go to a shredder.

Questions

How much is a 4GB DDR4 SODIMM worth in 2026?

Our current indicative payout is $3-$4 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.

Will a module pulled from a working server count as "used, working"?

Yes — pulled-from-working with an intact label and clean pins is exactly our base grade, quoted at the full range shown. Our bench verifies with an SPD read and a MemTest pass, and the measured spec always wins over the sticker.

Do I need to wipe RAM before selling it?

No — DRAM is volatile and loses its contents at power-off, so there is nothing to wipe by the time it reaches us. Storage is different: every drive we buy is erased to NIST 800-88, and the erasure report is yours on request.

What if I have more than eight sticks?

Quantity helps you: 8+ identical modules earn +3%, 32+ earn +6%, and pallet-scale lots go through our business desk with a manifest quote and New England pickup available.

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.
