Silver 3.5 inch hard drive mounted in black hot-swap caddy tray

IBM

IBM 8B146J0 146.8GB 10000RPM Ultra-320 SCSI 80-Pin 3.5" internal hard drive

SKU CH-2SBG-XH24Y

A 146.8 GB 10,000 RPM Ultra-320 SCSI drive with an 80-pin connector and included caddy for hot-swap 3.5" bays

  • 8 GB capacity stores large datasets
  • 10,000 RPM spindle speeds up data access
  • Ultra-320 SCSI interface moves data at 320 MB/s
  • 80-pin hot-swap connector allows drive changes without shutdown
  • Includes caddy tray for secure 3.5-inch bay mounting

Capacity and interface

This 146.8GB internal hard drive uses a 3.5-inch Ultra-320 SCSI 80-pin connection and spins at 10000RPM. It is designed for servers or workstations that require this specific legacy interface and hot-swap capability.

Sustained workload behaviour

The 10000RPM spindle speed supports consistent throughput for random I/O patterns typical of database or transaction logs. Mechanical latency remains constant during extended operations, avoiding the thermal throttling seen in some high-density modern drives.

Build and daily implications

The unit ships with a caddy/tray for tool-less insertion into compatible hot-swap bays. The 80-pin SCA connector combines power and data, reducing cable clutter, while the 2.0 pound weight reflects a robust mechanical assembly suited to continuous operation.

Questions about this item

How much power does the 10000RPM 146.8GB Ultra-320 SCSI drive draw when running continuously?

The drive spins at 10000RPM and connects via an 80-pin Ultra-320 SCSI interface; specific power-draw figures are not supplied.

What host adapter or backplane is required to use the 80-pin Ultra-320 SCSI connector on this 3.5" drive?

The 80-pin connector carries both data and power for hot-swap backplanes, so a compatible Ultra-320 SCSI controller or hot-swap cage is needed.

Will the 8B146J0 work in a server that only supports Wide Ultra-2 SCSI speeds?

The drive uses an Ultra-320 80-pin interface; it will negotiate down to the bus speed of the host controller.
