Description
QLogic QLA1080 64-Bit PCI SCSI Controller Card 68-Pin Ultra2 PC8110403-04
The QLogic QLA1080 is a single-channel Ultra2 SCSI host adapter for 64-bit PCI slots. It supports both Low Voltage Differential (LVD) and Single-Ended (SE) SCSI devices, delivering transfer rates up to 80 MB/s in LVD mode. The card uses QLogic's ISP1080 RISC-based SCSI processor and is designed for the full range of Wide SCSI peripherals — hard drives, tape drives, CD-ROM changers, and scanners.

Applications
The QLA1080 was a widely used SCSI host adapter in workstations and servers during the late 1990s and early 2000s, when Ultra2 SCSI was the standard for high-performance internal and external storage connectivity. It was commonly paired with SCSI hard drives and tape libraries in Windows NT/2000, Linux, and Novell NetWare server environments. Today it remains relevant for maintaining or expanding older SCSI-based storage systems, connecting legacy SCSI tape drives for data recovery, and as a replacement card in servers and workstations that still rely on Wide SCSI peripherals. The card's universal 64-bit PCI interface fits both 32-bit and 64-bit PCI slots, making it compatible with a broad range of server platforms from that era.
This QLogic QLA1080 64-bit PCI SCSI Controller Card (part PC8110403-04) has been inspected and appears to be in good condition. It has not been powered up or tested at our facility, but shows no signs of physical damage — the PCB is clean, the 68-pin connectors appear intact, and the board shows only light handling wear consistent with prior use.
