181.6GB Ultra160 SCSI 7200RPM Enterprise Grade Factory Sealed

Why the ST1181677LCV is the right Enterprise HDD

The Seagate Barracuda 180 series represented the pinnacle of SCSI hard drive technology in 2000, delivering unprecedented 181.6GB capacity when most drives offered under 40GB. Built with enterprise-grade components including 12 platters and advanced Tagged Command Queuing, it provided the high-capacity storage that demanding server applications required. This drive bridged the gap between older SCSI technology and emerging storage needs, making it essential for legacy system maintenance and vintage computing restoration.

Ultra160 SCSI Performance Interface

Features 80-pin SCA-2 connector with Ultra160 SCSI interface delivering up to 160MB/s bus bandwidth. Tagged Command Queuing supports up to 64 concurrent commands for optimized multi-tasking performance.

Enterprise-Grade Reliability

Built to 1.2 million hour MTBF specification with rotary voice coil actuator and enterprise-class components. Designed for continuous operation in demanding server and workstation environments.

High-Capacity 12-Platter Design

Utilizes 12 platters in 42mm Half Height Z form factor to achieve industry-leading 181.6GB capacity. This thick design maximized storage density using year 2000 platter technology.

Legacy System Compatibility

Perfect for maintaining vintage servers, workstations, and enterprise systems that require original SCSI drive specifications. Supports both narrow and wide SCSI configurations with proper controllers.

New Old Stock with 90-Day Warranty

Available as brand new, factory sealed old stock units from Anand International with a 90-day warranty. Ideal for legacy system maintenance, vintage computing restoration, and hard-to-find replacement needs.

Frequently Asked Questions

Frequently asked questions for SCSI, including information on usage, configuration, and compatibility.

1. What is a SCSI hard drive?

A SCSI (Small Computer System Interface) hard drive is a legacy enterprise storage device that connects using parallel ribbon cables. SCSI was widely used in servers, workstations, and storage arrays before newer technologies like SAS and SATA became standard.
2. What systems are SCSI hard drives compatible with?

SCSI drives are designed for older servers, RAID controllers, and storage arrays that have SCSI interfaces. They are commonly used today to maintain or repair legacy IT infrastructure.
3. What’s the difference between SCSI and SAS?

SCSI uses parallel communication and bulky ribbon cables, with speeds up to 320 MB/s. SAS (Serial Attached SCSI) is the modern successor, offering serial communication, smaller connectors, dual-port redundancy, and speeds up to 24 Gb/s.
4. Can SCSI hard drives still be used in modern systems?

Most modern computers don’t have SCSI ports. To use a SCSI drive, you’ll need a compatible SCSI controller card or an external enclosure designed for parallel SCSI.
5. What capacities are available for SCSI hard drives?

SCSI hard drives were typically available in capacities ranging from a few gigabytes to several hundred gigabytes. Larger capacities are rare compared to modern SATA and SAS drives.
6. Are SCSI hard drives hot-swappable?

Yes, many SCSI drives used in enterprise servers were hot-swappable when paired with a compatible RAID backplane or enclosure. This allowed replacement without shutting down the system.
7. Why are SCSI hard drives still used today?

SCSI hard drives remain important for maintaining legacy servers, specialized equipment, and industrial systems where upgrading to newer storage technologies isn’t possible or practical.
