Dell HC492 300GB 10000RPM Ultra320 SCSI 80-Pin 3.5-Inch Hard Drive

Product Description

The Dell HC492 represents a higher capacity option within the Ultra320 SCSI drive family, offering 300GB of storage. This drive is engineered for enterprise environments that rely on SCSI technology for their critical applications and data storage needs. The 10,000 RPM rotational speed ensures rapid data access and high throughput, making it suitable for performance-sensitive workloads such as databases and transaction processing systems. This particular model uses an 80-pin connector, which is typically associated with LVD (Low Voltage Differential) SCSI configurations, offering improved signal integrity and higher performance over older single-ended interfaces. Ultra320 SCSI provides a maximum theoretical bandwidth of 320MB/s, enabling efficient data transfer for demanding applications. The 3.5-inch form factor is standard for enterprise hard drives, ensuring broad compatibility with server hardware. As a high-performance drive for legacy systems, the Dell HC492 is a valuable component for maintaining the operational integrity of older infrastructure. It provides a substantial storage capacity combined with the speed and reliability expected from enterprise-grade SCSI drives. Organizations still utilizing SCSI-based servers can leverage this drive to enhance their storage capabilities or replace aging components.
