Microsoft Deployment Expert to automate testing, erasing, and imaging of computers -we refurbish pcs

We have a small computer refurbishing company, we process used computers and resell them. At the moment we do everything manual.

We have a tech go to every testing station and run the hard drive tests, then memory tests. Then we will wipe the drives and lastly we will install windows from a cd or clone the drive with acronis.

There are a couple of existing computer refurbishing solutions in the market that are designed for larger operations. You can check their links so you can get an idea of what we need done

After speaking to eurosoft rep, he suggested that for my small size operation i can buy from them 2 tools
Pc-Check Windows + ZeroData Windows

so he suggested

to run through pxe network their PC check ( Diagnostics)
then run through network ( Zero Data)
then integrate with Microsoft Deployment to send the image of windows through the network


The idea is to do everything through the network, and automated

We are open to ideas and suggestions, we just need a simple system for now ( i know those other companies offers advanced reporting, etc etc) If you know a better way, or other software let us know


We understand we will need a good server, switches, and network Upgrade to see actual info will be a plus if you are familiar with the Microsoft refurbisher program ( they have certain guidelines as to how to properly image windows for a new customer when they receive their pc)
