300 GB Fibre Channel hard drive
The IBM 22R5496 is a 3.5-inch enterprise drive with a 300 GB capacity and a 10,000 RPM spindle speed. It connects via a Fibre Channel interface for use in compatible storage arrays and servers. The module weighs 5.1 units and carries part number 22R5496 for identification.
Replaces slower or smaller Fibre Channel drives
This drive upgrades systems that currently run lower-capacity or lower-speed Fibre Channel disks. The jump is worthwhile when the workload demands the 10,000 RPM rotational speed and 300 GB capacity in a 3.5-inch form factor. It is not for buyers who need a different interface, a 2.5-inch form factor, or solid-state storage.
