With us you will find all components that you can use for your IT hardware. This also includes host bus adapters. We show you what to look for when buying host bus adapters and why refurbished host adapters are better than used or new host adapters.

What is a host bus adapter?

A host bus adapter acts as an interface between internal or external computer or server systems. These include, for example, network systems or storage devices. The aim is to ensure data exchange between different components by means of a bus system. Usually these adapters are identified with the abbreviation HBA.

What should you look out for when buying a host bus adapter?

• Is the HBA legal for your server or computer?
• One of the most important features is the connection type. A distinction is made here between SCSI, iSCSI, SATA, Ethernet and Fiber Channel. In any case, you should pay attention to the type of connection required for your server and computer components.
• You should also pay attention to whether expansion cards are included in addition to the HBA.
• The latency of the HBA is also hugely important. Ideally, this should be between 10 µs and 20 µs. This mainly helps your server or computer by relieving the CPU and increasing the performance of your IT hardware considerably.
• Host bus adapters should generally support virtual storage servers. It is therefore possible for the server to have several virtual machines on it.

Why should you buy a refurbished host bus adapter?

This question can be answered relatively easily: Because you get the best price / performance ratio. Refurbished HBAs are in no way inferior to new products, but have the advantage that the purchase price is significantly lower than that of new HBAs. Due to our complex and extensive test process, our refurbished host bus adapters hardly differ in quality from new HBAs. For you this means: You get the same service at a significantly lower price. But our HBAs also offer significant advantages compared to conventional used products. Used HBAs are products that haven't gone through a testing process before being sold. For you, this means that you cannot 100% assume that the goods are flawless and, in the worst case, even receive a non-functional product. When purchasing HBAs from our shop, you do not have this risk. Our entire range has been extensively tested for quality and functionality and works perfectly.
