About this product
The Seagate Elite ST446452W is a 47GB SCSI hard disk drive, built for enterprise-grade applications. It features a 5.25-inch form factor and a 68-pin interface, compatible with Ultra SCSI systems. Operating at 7200 RPM with an 8MB cache, it offers a read speed of 100MB/s and a transfer rate of 125 Mbps. This internal desktop drive is designed for PCs requiring high-capacity storage within a legacy SCSI architecture.
Our take
If you're running a legacy system that demands a 5.25-inch, 68-pin SCSI drive, this Seagate Elite might be exactly what you need. The 47GB capacity is quite generous for a drive of its type and era, making it suitable for more substantial data storage in older setups. The 7200 RPM speed helps with performance, and the 8MB cache is a welcome addition. However, the physical size and the SCSI interface are significant limitations, restricting its use to very specific hardware. It's a solid, enterprise-grade option for vintage systems, but not for anything modern.
