Dell Optiplex 7040 Business SFF Computer Small Tower PC (Intel Core i5-6500, 16GB Ram, 256GB SSD, DVD-RW, WiFi) Win 10 Pro (Renewed)

just as advertised

I got so lucky my computer I had for years that I got for free went all blue screen of death on me and I only had 150usd to spend on a computer. Thats when I just so happen to see this computer that had much better specs than my old pc for 140+tax and that was just a sale happening in the next 9 hours at the time I saw it. It shipped super fast and set up was super easy. I have a dual monitor setup and even though it only has 1 hdmi port all you need is a display port to hdmi port adaptor and you can set up 2 screens. I only use this for streaming and web browsing I dont game though I doubt its good enough for any gaming beyond very low graphic games.

Old monitor plug does not fit!

When I received the pc it surprised me because it looks new. It shipped fast. I’ve purchased refurbished before and the pc was beat up and worn. This pc came with a warranty, MS Windows, keyboard and mouse, and is already for business setups. I’ll definitely order from this seller again.

I am using this product for a month and was working fine. All the sudden one day it starts booting and say “Alert! Hard drive or optical drive not found.”

Im using this as a NAS for cameras, video AI, and home automation. I added a second hard drive for the NAS functionality and a graphics card for the AI, and the machine has been a rock solid performer for my needs. If you need a small server with a small footprint or simple budget desktop, this is a good value. Mine came with a keyboard, mouse and power cable. Since Im using it as a server I didnt use the keyboard or mouse so I have no comment on their quality.

The Dell Optiplex 7040 out of the box from the vendor are great workhorse PCs with very few issues which is why I was happy to purchase a refurb one for home use. This certified refurbished model barely worked a year and has had a myriad of issues. They also used quite literally the cheapest, crappiest, most terrible hard drive I have ever seen. I understand why they pop in garbage hard drives because they need to make a very tight profit margin but seriously, this thing is so tiny and so flimsy that it looks like it came out of a gum ball machine. I am very bummed because the machine is not fixable and far past the 90 day window. Please be very careful buying refurbs, youre getting completely inferior parts on machines that may have had issues brand new.

Does not work - cannot log in after power on

Perfect machine. Very on time. The machine is worth far more than the price I paid for it. It says it is refurbished, but absolutely no sign of it not being new.

not a bad deal for the money should have gotten better intel processor tho
