my new fujitsu scsi drive

edited May 2005 in Hardware
My new fujitsu 17gb 15krpm 8mb cache u320 scsi drive came yesterday. installed it few hours ago. This beast MAKES A LOT of noise, but i shouldn`t complain about noise as i currently have 5 case fans speening and a 6000rpm cpu cooler fan. :p

    Dang, I bet it makes a lot of noises. I recently installed an 18 gig 10k rpm Qauntum SCSI ultrawide160 drive in both my servers, but it made too much of a damn racket that I took them out. Now I'm just going for high-end SATA drives.

    how do you even work in an environment with that much noise?

    I have a pair of Fujitsu 15k MAM series running in this box and they are near silent. No louder then a IDE basicaly.

    Is yours a MAS or MAU series?

    The newer ones should be quiter then mine.

    My case is one thermaltake that weights about 14kg empty. So imagine how solid it is. So the hd doesn`t make any vibration. the only annoying noise is the cpu fan. Yesterday i was transferring data from one sata hd to my scsi through 1gb lan. I got up to 18mB/s. Probably i could get more but i don`t thing the sata could go more.

    your gigabit Lan is whats slowing you down not the speed of the drives.
