Data Center and Infrastructure Retirement Support

Scoped retirement support for servers, storage, networking gear and data-bearing media, including inventory, sanitization/destruction routing, value recovery and recycling.

Common Challenges

Server and storage intake and inventory
Drive and media handling with documented sanitization
Networking equipment recovery
Data sanitization or destruction routing for data-bearing assets
Value recovery for eligible hardware
Recycling and downstream processing for end-of-life equipment

Recommended Model

Clean Sweep Buyout — for positive-value server and networking fleets
Compliance Offset — for mixed-value infrastructure projects
Secure+ — for destruction requirements and enhanced reporting

What arcITAD Handles

Server and storage asset intake and inventory
Drive and media sanitization aligned with NIST SP 800-88 guidelines
Destruction routing for failed or high-risk media
Networking equipment recovery and value routing
De-rack coordination by project scope
Value recovery for eligible hardware
Responsible recycling for end-of-life equipment
Closeout documentation and financial settlement

Frequently Asked Questions

What infrastructure can arcITAD scope for retirement?

arcITAD can scope server and storage intake, drive and media handling, networking equipment recovery, de-rack coordination by scope, sanitization or destruction routing, value recovery and recycling. Contact us to discuss your specific project.

How does arcITAD handle data sanitization for servers and storage?

arcITAD applies documented sanitization workflows aligned with NIST SP 800-88 guidelines for supported media. Failed or unsupported drives are routed through exception handling, documented destruction or recycling.

Can arcITAD recover value from retired servers and networking gear?

Yes. Eligible servers, networking equipment and storage hardware are evaluated for resale value. Value recovered can offset processing and reporting costs for the broader project.
