SCSI drive question

[cdtech1980]

Hello all. I just popped out a drive in a old server. no name.

The scsi drive is a Quantum Atlas 10K III

some other info on the disk

SCSI Ultra160/LVD/SE

also has a picture that shows SCA and 68 PIN WIDE SCSI.

Does anyone know what kind of disks I need. I would like to purchase 2 more 320 gb.

I check CDW and they have a bunch of different type like:

Internal 3.5", Ultra320 SCSI

internal - 3.5" - Ultra320 SCSI - 68 pin HD D-Sub

internal - 3.5" - Ultra320 SCSI - 80 pin HD D-Sub

Ultra320 SCSI - 80 pin Centronics (SCA-2) - 15000 rpm

Thanks in advance.

Not sure exactly what you're trying to do...replace the drive? Build a RAID array? What is the make/model of the SCSI host controller? Here's some help with the alphabet soup:

Your SCSI host controller will determine which type of disks you can use. It should identify itself in BIOS during boot.

Also look here, especially if SCSI host adapter is an Adaptec brand. This will show you the type of connectors and the type of SCSI devices that can connect to it.
