Capacity and purpose
This 36GB SCSI hard drive is built for legacy servers and workstations that require an 80-pin U160 interface. It suits administrators maintaining older storage arrays or replacing a failed drive in a RAID set where capacity matching is critical.
Deciding specification
The drive spins at 10000RPM and delivers a 160MB/s Ultra160 SCSI transfer rate across the 80-pin connector. That combination of speed and interface determines whether the unit will integrate with the existing controller and backplane without negotiation issues.
Build integration
The 3.5-inch form factor fits standard drive bays and hot-swap carriers designed for SCA-2 connectors. It draws power directly from the backplane, freeing internal cabling space, and requires a compatible Ultra160 SCSI controller to operate at the rated throughput.

Questions about this item
What does the 10000 RPM spindle speed mean for real-world access times?
The 10000 RPM rotation cuts average latency compared with slower drives, giving quicker random reads for database or transaction workloads.
What does the SCSI U160 160 MB/s interface cap in practice?
The U160 bus tops out at 160 MB/s, so sustained transfers cannot exceed that ceiling even if the drive media is faster.
Will the 80-pin 3.5-inch form factor fit my server backplane?
Yes, the 80-pin SCA connector and standard 3.5-inch dimensions match hot-swap bays designed for U160 drives.
