Dell Refurbished Controllers

Replacing or upgrading a controller in a Dell PowerEdge server or Dell storage system is a precise job — the right model, interface, and cache configuration all matter. We stock refurbished Dell PERC RAID controllers for PowerEdge servers, alongside storage array controllers for Dell PowerVault ME-series, EqualLogic, and Compellent SC-series systems.

 

Every controller is inspected and tested before shipping under our ISO 9001-certified quality management system. Orders ship from our warehouse in Denmark within 1–2 working days.

Dell PERC RAID Controllers

For PowerEdge servers, we stock Dell PERC RAID controllers across multiple generations at 6Gb and 12Gb SAS — including the PERC 6/i, PERC 6/e, H200E, H310, H700, H710, H710P, H740P, H755, H800, H810, and H965i. Cache sizes range from 256MB through 8GB depending on the model. PERC controllers are server-specific — compatibility depends on your PowerEdge model, interface generation, and whether you need an internal or external variant.

 

Dell PowerVault ME-Series Storage Controllers

For PowerVault ME4 and ME5 storage arrays, we stock Type B and Type A controllers in SAS 12G, 10GbE iSCSI, 16Gb FC, 25GbE iSCSI, and 32Gb FC configurations — covering ME4012, ME4024, ME4084, ME5024, and ME5012 platforms. Storage array controllers come in matched pairs for redundancy and must match your existing controller type and firmware version.

 

Dell EqualLogic SAN Controllers

For EqualLogic PS-series iSCSI SAN arrays, we stock Type 5, Type 7, and Type 10 controllers for PS3000, PS5000, PS6000, PS6500, PS6010, and PS6510 platforms. EqualLogic controllers must match the array model and existing controller type for proper failover operation.

 

Dell Compellent SC-Series Controllers

For Compellent and SC-series storage systems, we stock controllers for the SC7020, SCV2000, and SCV3020 — in SAS, iSCSI, and Fibre Channel configurations. SC-series controllers are highly version-specific — firmware and controller type matching is critical before ordering.

 

Finding the Right Controller

Compatibility across all controller types depends on your exact system model, existing controller generation, interface type, cache configuration, and firmware version. If you know the Dell part number, search directly. If you're not sure, our team can confirm compatibility, or use our Server Configurator or Parts Finder to check compatibility before ordering.

 

Frequently Asked Questions

What types of Dell controllers do you stock? Dell PERC RAID controllers for PowerEdge servers at 6Gb and 12Gb SAS, PowerVault ME4 and ME5 storage array controllers, EqualLogic PS-series SAN controllers, and Compellent SC-series storage controllers.

 

What is the difference between a PERC RAID controller and a storage array controller? A PERC controller manages drives directly inside a PowerEdge server. A storage array controller manages drives within an external storage enclosure such as a PowerVault ME or EqualLogic PS array — these are completely different products serving different roles.

 

Do storage array controllers need to be matched? Yes — controllers in storage arrays such as the ME-series and EqualLogic PS-series typically operate in pairs for redundancy. Both controllers must match in type and firmware version for proper failover operation.

 

How much can I save with a refurbished Dell controller? Up to 80% versus buying new, depending on the controller type, cache size, and interface.

 

What's the warranty on a refurbished Dell controller? Every refurbished Dell controller comes with a 1-year warranty.
