Our take
This Dell Y4721 drive provides a robust solution for systems still relying on Ultra320 SCSI. The 146GB capacity combined with a 10,000 RPM speed and 8MB cache delivers a good blend of storage and performance for demanding enterprise applications. Crucially, the hot swap and hot plug support make it ideal for server environments where uptime is critical. The 320MB/s transfer rate is respectable for its interface type. Compatibility with PC, Memory Vault, and Mac systems is a useful note, though the Ultra320 SCSI interface remains the key compatibility factor.
