Hewlett Packard 431935-B21 (72 GB)


Serial Attached SCSI is the logical evolution of SCSI, including its long-established software advantage and the Serial ATA electrical and physical connection interface. With enterprise storage requirements escalating and becoming more complex, factors such as larger capacity, greater density, security, scalability and accessibility are more critical than ever.Minimize

Seagate Cheetah 10K.6 (146.8 GB)


The Cheetah 10K.6 is Seagate's sixth-generation 10K RPM high performance, high capacity disk drive. With the fastest interfaces, the highest reliability and the most mature product design, the Cheetah 10K.6 enables the lowest ownership cost. In data intensive environments, increasing the capacity per disk drive lowers ownership costs by deploying fewer systems that use less cubic feet of space requiring less infrastructure such as cabinets, HBAs and less wattage of power.Minimize

Fujitsu MAT3147NC (147 GB)


Fujitsu's latest generation of Enterprise SCSI Hard Disk Drives offer capacities of up to 300GB in a 1-inch high, 3.5-inch form factor. The MAT SCSI series is the latest generation Hard Disk products from Fujitsu offering low profile, high speed and high capacity to high performance enterprise computing applications.

Hewlett Packard Compaq 289044-001 (145.6 GB)


"IBM presents the sixth generation of IBM Ultrastar 10,000 rpm disk drives. The IBM Ultrastar 146Z10 drive family offers high quality and superior performance. These drives feature more powerful processors and read/write channels to excel in server-class environments. To achieve maximum I/O performance, the drives combine fast seek times, large 8 MB multi-segmented buffers, a sophisticated command queuing algorithm, hardware automation, and superior data rates (825 Mbps). Ultrastar 146Z10 drives include a servo technology (Rotational Vibration Safeguard ""RVS""), employed to counteract the effects of rotational vibration that commonly occur in multi-drive cabinets. They also employ a fifth-generation giant magnetoresistive (GMR) head technology to double areal density from previous generation drives (26.3 Gbits/sq.in.) and boost performance. In addition, highly efficient No-ID sector formatting enables more data to be stored per disk.Feature Value Header / Product Line IBM UltraStar Header / Model 146Z1"Minimize
