IBM Ultrastar 9ES - hard drive - 4.5 GB - Ultra Wide SCSI
IBM's Ultrastar 9ES is the ideal hard drive for entry-level workgroup applications that include CAD/CAM, image processing, and multimedia computing. The Ultrastar 9ES is specifically designed for the workstation or high-performance desktop. It stores up to 4.5GB of data and features a fast 7200 RPM spindle speed for increased drive performance. Its Ultra SCSI interface delivers burst interface data rates up to 20MB/second. The Ultrastar 9ES features low power dissipation to improve reliability. It uses Magnetoresistive Extended (MRX) advanced head technology to increase areal density and reduce the number of disks and heads required for a given capacity. The Partial Response Maximum Likelihood (PRML) digital data channel enables higher areal densities and significantly enhances overall drive performance by increasing media-to-buffer and buffer transfer rates. The Ultrastar 9ES also includes an integrated LSI chip that incorporates a microcomputer, hard disk controller and flash memory in a single chip. This increases performance and reduces power usage. The Ultrastar 9ES supports Self-Monitoring, Analysis and Reporting Technology (SMART) to help prevent data loss and provide advance warning of drive failures. This drive is not only reliable, but extremely affordable.
