Add to My manuals2 Pages
Quantum 10K II: is a high-performance hard disk drive designed for use in servers, workstations, and subsystems. It features a large capacity of up to 73.4 GB, a fast 10,000 RPM spindle speed, and a 4.7 ms average seek time. The drive also includes an 8 MB cache buffer and an Ultra160 SCSI interface for fast data transfer speeds.
This drive is ideal for demanding applications that require high I/O performance, such as database servers, video editing workstations, and CAD/CAM systems. It is also a good choice for use in RAID arrays, where its high reliability and performance can help to improve the overall performance and data protection of the system.
