Product Benefits When critical applications and multiple devices run at full speed on your system, 160 MByte/sec performance you need to ensure that your data transfers are reliable. The Adaptec Ultra160 SCSI 32- and 64-bit PCI solutions cards protect the integrity of your data and provide reliable connectivity. The MTBF SpeedFlex technology ensures top (Mean Time Between Failure) of most performance of all connected devices, UDMA hard drives is 300K-500K. SCSI hard regardless of SCSI generation* drives are twice as reliable with an MTBF of 1000K hours. The advanced new features of Seamless backwards compatibility Adaptec's Ultra160 SCSI cards, such as CRC, protects legacy devices detect and minimize such errors during data transfer, thereby providing the most reliable Industry-leading compatibility, reliability solution.
