Applications
The Quantum 18.2S belongs to Quantum's late-1990s lineup of high-capacity Wide SCSI hard drives aimed at workstations and servers. The 68-pin Wide SCSI interface was the dominant high-performance storage standard of that era, used extensively in Unix workstations from Sun Microsystems, Silicon Graphics (SGI), Hewlett-Packard, and IBM, as well as in rack-mounted servers from Compaq and Dell. These drives are still sought after by maintainers of legacy Sun SPARC and SGI IRIX systems, vintage workstation collectors, and anyone needing replacement storage for aging SCSI-based equipment. The half-height 3.5-inch form factor fits standard drive bays of the period. Wide SCSI supports data transfer rates up to 40 MB/s and allowed daisy-chaining of up to 15 devices per bus — a significant advantage over IDE in multi-drive server configurations of the time.
This Quantum 18.2S 18.2GB 3.5" Half-Height 68-Pin Wide SCSI hard drive has been wiped, formatted, and tested at our facility. It boots cleanly to a waiting C:/ prompt and is in good working order. The drive will be retested prior to shipment to confirm it is ready to go. The exterior shows typical wear consistent with prior use. Please view our photos and contact us with any questions. Please note: We have multiple units in stock — yours may not be the one shown in the photos, however, it will be similar in condition and function.
