There's nothing better than Ultra160 SCSI!

Speed: the fastest disk technology available today
Lower TCO : easy to install, support, and own
Future Enabled: compatible with your present and future systems


If You Want Speed,
Buy it With Ultra160

If you want to keep up with today's high-speed processors and bandwidth-hungry applications, Ultra160 SCSI is the answer. With data transfer rates of up to 160 Mbyte/sec, it's the fastest disk technology available today: 140% faster than UDMA/66 and 60% faster than Fibre Channel. Nothing moves data faster than Ultra160 SCSI.

 

 

If You Want to Lower Your TCO,
Buy it With Ultra160

Ultra160 SCSI can reduce installation problems, eliminate costly support calls and lower the total cost of ownership (TCO). By incorporating advanced management features such as domain validation, Ultra160 SCSI negotiates the highest possible transfer rate, verifies operation and ensures drive availability. Plus CRC (cyclic redundancy check) adds the superior error detection and reliability needed for high-speed data transfer and hot plug operations.

 

If You Want to Future Enable Your System,
Buy it With Ultra160

SCSI has long been known for its performance and compatibility with prior versions. Ultra160 SCSI extends that heritage. With low-voltage differential (LVD) signaling, it enables you mix Ultra160, Ultra2 and legacy SCSI devices*-each at their full rated speed. What's more, Ultra160 SCSI promises to support technology advances well into the foreseeable future so you'll be ready to take advantage.
