Refurbished Dell PowerEdge Servers | Refurbished HPE ProLiant Servers
Both lines are configured the same way here. The practical differences are management tooling, parts availability and what your team already runs — matching an existing fleet keeps spares, firmware process and staff familiarity on your side. Browse Dell rack and tower servers or HPE rack servers, or read the longer refurbished Dell PowerEdge and refurbished HPE ProLiant guides for how generations and chassis differ within each line.
How to choose a refurbished server
Most buyers arrive knowing the workload but not the model. Four decisions narrow it down quickly.
Rack or tower
Rack servers mount in a 19-inch cabinet and are measured in rack units — a 1U platform such as the Dell PowerEdge R640 saves height, while a 2U platform such as the R730 or R740 trades height for more drive bays and expansion capacity. Tower servers stand on the floor, run quieter and suit offices without a cabinet. If there's no rack on site, a tower is the correct answer rather than a compromise. See rack vs. tower: choosing a form factor for bay counts across seven platforms.
Processors, memory and storage
Size the processor to the workload rather than the model year: installed CPU count affects how much memory and expansion the platform can use. Drive size, backplane, controller and carriers all need to match — and capacity is a chassis decision made at build, since an 8-bay server can't be populated to 16 by adding caddies. Every configure-to-order listing here resolves those dependencies for you; see the R740 vs R740XD and Storage & RAID Advisor guides to plan capacity.
Which generation
Older generations cost less and are backed by a mature parts supply; newer generations bring later processor families, faster interconnects and, on several platforms, NVMe front bays. Compare them in the Dell and HPE generation comparison or the Dell PowerEdge generation compatibility guide.
Which model
Which Dell PowerEdge rack server? — the R340 to R740XD ladder in one table | T440 vs T640 — the Dell tower pair | DL360 vs DL380 Gen10 and ML350 vs DL380 Gen10

Why configure to order is our best value
Refurbished configure-to-order systems are the option we sell most commonly. Instead of buying a fixed build and paying for components you won't use, you select the processors, memory and storage the workload needs and see the configured price before you order.
Warranty and support
Servers, workstations and parts sold on TekBoost.com come standard with a 3-year warranty, with an option to upgrade to 5-year coverage. Warranty terms are set per product, so check the product details page for the term that applies to the system you're configuring. Full details and warranty registration are on the warranty page.
What "used," "refurbished" and "recertified" mean here
These terms are used loosely across the industry and rarely mean the same thing from one seller to the next, and none should be read as a manufacturer certification unless the manufacturer is named making it. Rather than rely on the label, check what testing the hardware went through, what warranty comes with it, and exactly which components are in the configuration you're quoted — the terms that apply here are set out under Warranty and support above, and the specification you receive is the one selected at checkout.
Chassis configuration data
We publish the full matrix of every chassis configuration we list — 65 configurations across 22 platforms — including which platforms offer NVMe front bays and where the highest bay counts actually are: refurbished server chassis configurations, the full matrix.
Every server we ship is inspected, validated and tested before it leaves our facility — component verification, memory testing, drive health checks and a configuration review, not just a power-on check. See our testing and quality-control process.
