Tech/Engineering - Computers (general) / data erasure

English term or phrase: reuse

Contexto:

The Company has over ten years experience focused on data erasure solutions, computer reuse and IT asset management. Today, tens of thousands of computers are erased daily with our solutions. The Company supports a wide *reuse* of hardware with the ability to access all areas on the hard drive and bad sector detection.

El término "reuse" en general está claro en el contexto de la destrucción de datos. El problema me surge en esta frase en concreto. No entiendo el sentido de "a wide resuse of hardware". Lo lógico sería "range": "la empresa es compatible con una amplia gama de hardware".
¿Alguien ve un sentido con "reuse"?

¡Gracias!

Notes to answerer

Asker: Gracias por tu respuesta. Estoy de acuerdo con "reutilización" para "reuse" en general. Hasta ahí bien. El problema es en esta frase en concreto, no me parece que tenga mucho sentido "XXX es compatible con una amplia reutilización de hardware". ¿Para vosotras lo tiene?

1 hr confidence:

reutilización.

Explanation:
El problema es que tradujiste mal "support".

Estás traduciendo mal "support". En definitiva lo que se dice es que la empresa da la posibilidad de de nuevo en muchos casos el hardware. Mi traducción sería algo como "la compañía facilíta una amplia reutilización del hardware".

Es decir, permite mas y mas reutilización de este, ahorrando costos.

Espero que te sirva la explicación.
