HP 300 GB Ultra320 SCSI drive
This 300 GB hard disk spins at 10000 RPM and uses an 80-pin Ultra320 SCSI interface. It fits a 3.5 inch bay with a 1.0 inch height and includes a hot-swap tray. The drive is suited for legacy servers and storage arrays that require this specific connection.
Thermals noise and power draw
Normal operation produces typical mechanical noise from the 10000 RPM spindle and actuator seeks. Heat output is consistent with enterprise-class drives of this speed and form factor. Power consumption varies with workload but remains within the limits of the Ultra320 SCSI specification. The hot-swap tray allows replacement without shutting down the chassis.

Questions about this item
How do I install the 80-pin Ultra320 SCSI drive into a hot-swap bay, and what step is often missed?
Slide the 3.5-inch drive into the bay until the 80-pin connector seats firmly; the step often missed is not pushing far enough for the latch to click, leaving the drive loose.
What maintenance will the 10000 RPM drive need later, and when should it be replaced?
No scheduled maintenance is required; replace the 300 GB drive if SMART errors appear, unusual noise develops, or the server logs report read/write failures.
