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 | $35–$40 |
| SK Hynix Tier-1 OEM DRAM; near-Samsung liquidity in the server channel. | $34–$38 |
| Micron Tier-1 OEM DRAM; strong data-center demand. | $33–$38 |
| Crucial Micron's retail arm — genuine Micron silicon, thinner enterprise resale. | $31–$35 |
| Kingston Reliable, high-volume module maker; softer resale premium than the OEM three. | $29–$34 |
| Corsair Enthusiast/desktop brand; limited server-channel demand. | $28–$32 |
| G.Skill Enthusiast/desktop brand; limited server-channel demand. | $28–$32 |
| ADATA Value module maker; lower used-market liquidity. | $27–$30 |
| Third-party Nemix, A-Tech, Timetec and similar third-party assemblers — we still buy, at a lower payout. | $23–$26 |
| Unknown Unbranded or unidentifiable modules; priced conservatively, still purchased. | $21–$24 |
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
A 16GB DDR4 unbuffered ECC SODIMM at 2666 MT/s (PC4-21300) — the error-correcting small-outline module used in Xeon mobile workstations, micro-servers, and NAS units. The market for ECC SODIMMs is narrower than for registered DIMMs, yet the 2025-26 shortage firmed prices across the board, and tidy Samsung, SK Hynix, and Micron pulls still move. We verify ECC function on the bench and pay from the measured spec. Common part numbers include M474A2K43BB1-CTD and MTA18ASF2G72HZ-2G6E1.

Questions
How much is a 16GB DDR4-2666 ECC SODIMM worth in 2026?
Our current indicative payout is $35-$40 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.
