Retiring Clinic Laptops Under HIPAA: Hospital ITAD Use Case
How a hospital system retired ePHI laptops and imaging workstations under HIPAA: BAA, chain of custody, verified NIST 800-88 wipes, one certificate per drive.
Coretek 360 tests, repairs, reimages, and resells working hardware after a NIST 800-88 wipe, so you get the most value back from each asset, itemized for you.
Get a quoteRetired hardware of every kind is valued, wiped, refurbished, and resold, and the value returned is itemized for you. This is not the full list, so ask about anything you do not see.
We review your inventory up front by make, model, age, and condition to show which equipment still holds residual value, what it may return, and what should go straight to R2v3 recycling.
Have equipment with market value? Coretek 360 buys used IT equipment of all kinds. Servers, storage arrays, switches, routers, firewalls, laptops, desktops, and monitors are common examples, not the limit. Send us your list, whatever is on it, and we will tell you what it is worth.
Each asset is tested for function and graded for cosmetic condition, which sets both its path, resale or recycling, and its resale value. The grade is recorded against the serial number.
Hardware worth restoring is wiped to NIST 800-88, repaired with failed parts replaced, and reimaged so it is ready for its next user. Refurbishment is done at our facility, and test and repair is within the scope of our R2v3 certification.
Refurbished equipment is remarketed through our sales channels, priced by grade and market, to recover the most residual value from each asset.
A settlement report itemizes the value returned from each asset by serial number, alongside the certificate of data destruction for its drive, so you can account for every dollar recovered.
Direct answers on what resells, how it is wiped, and how the return is reported.
Equipment with life left in it, such as working laptops, desktops, servers, and network gear that is recent enough to resell. We review your inventory by make, model, age, and condition to estimate residual value up front, then test each asset at our facility to confirm its grade and path.
It is tested, repaired where needed, and reimaged so it is ready for its next user, then remarketed through our sales channels, priced by grade and market. Before any of that, its drives are wiped to NIST 800-88 and verified. The sale is recorded against the asset's serial number in your settlement report.
Yes. Every drive is wiped to NIST 800-88 and verified before any hardware is reused or resold, and a certificate of data destruction is issued for each serial number. Any drive that fails verification is shredded instead. The sanitization method appears in the final report alongside the resale record for that asset.
You receive a settlement report that itemizes the value returned from each retired asset by serial number. It sits alongside the serialized asset report and certificates of data destruction, so finance can account for every dollar recovered and compliance can confirm each drive was sanitized before the hardware was resold.
It is recycled through R2v3 certified downstream processors and documented through final disposition in the same report. Coretek 360 is also a RIOS Certified Recycler. Data bearing media is wiped or shredded first, with a certificate of data destruction per serial number, so recycled assets are documented to the same standard as resold ones.
Yes. Refurbished equipment is sold by Coretek Computers, a separate division of Coretek Enterprises LLC, at coretekcomputers.com. Every unit sold there has been tested, graded, repaired where needed, and reimaged, and its drive was wiped to NIST 800-88 and verified before resale. That is the same process we apply to the hardware we recover for clients.
Each asset is tested for function, graded for cosmetic condition, repaired with failed parts replaced, and given a clean image so it is ready to use. Its drive is wiped to NIST 800-88 before the image goes on. The grade and the work performed are recorded against the serial number in your report.
Yes. Each asset is logged by serial number at pickup and tracked through testing, refurbishment, and its sale or final disposition. The settlement report itemizes what each serial number returned, and the certificate of data destruction confirms its drive was sanitized. Together they give finance and compliance one record per asset.

Coretek was founded in 2001, R2 certified in 2013 and renamed Coretek 360 in 2026. What changed in IT asset disposition in 25 years, and why the name changed.

How a bank retired teller workstations and branch servers with every asset documented from dock to disposition, and value returned, before its GLBA exam.

Six steps to recover resale value from retired IT assets: inventory, NIST 800-88 sanitization, valuation, R2v3 partner selection, logistics and settlement.

What NIST 800-88 Rev. 2 requires: clear, purge and destroy defined, what changed in 2025, SSD and cryptographic erase rules, what a certificate must record.
