Used SSDs in Hamilton typically sell for C$38 to C$170 (about $27 to $120). Solid state drives are cheap new, so used ones sell mainly on capacity and remaining write endurance.
Selling a SSD in Hamilton
Hamilton has a steel and manufacturing history and has absorbed a great deal of movement out of Toronto in search of cheaper housing. Tools and workshop equipment have a genuine local market, and the older housing stock means full-size furniture fits.
Arrivals from Toronto typically move from a condo to a house and buy furniture to fill it, while the industrial base keeps tools and equipment turning over independently of the housing market.
The city sits on and below an escarpment, and which side of it someone is on is worth establishing before agreeing anything heavy. Driving and parking are otherwise easy compared with Toronto.
Hamilton, in Ontario, has around 570,000 people, which means a steady local market where the usual things move reliably and the unusual ones are worth listing with a wider radius in mind. Toronto, Ottawa and Brampton are close enough that a buyer there may well make the trip for the right thing.
Handing it over in Hamilton

Put in the description
- Capacity, form factor and interface
- Brand, model and read/write speeds
Capacity, interface and health: “1TB NVMe M.2 SSD, Samsung 970 EVO, 98% Health”. Capacity and interface are the filters. Including a SMART health figure is unusual and immediately credible, because buyers of used drives are specifically worried about wear.
Listing is free and there is no selling fee, so the whole amount the buyer pays stays with you. You and the buyer agree the handover between yourselves.
