18 GB Ultra160 SCSI drive for legacy servers

This new IBM ST318452LC is an 18 GB internal hard drive spinning at 15000 RPM on the Ultra160 SCSI interface. It targets administrators maintaining older 3.5 inch SCSI storage arrays or workstations that require a direct replacement drive. The unit ships with an included caddy tray for mounting in compatible bays.

Straightforward caddy installation

The supplied caddy lets the drive slide into a standard 3.5 inch hot-swap or fixed bay without extra brackets. Installation fails most often when the SCSI ID jumpers are not set uniquely or when the bus termination is missing or doubled at the end of the chain. Verify the ID selection and ensure only the last device on the cable is terminated before powering on.

Check controller and cabling before ordering

Confirm your host adapter supports Ultra160 (160 MB/s) signalling and provides the correct 68-pin connector for this 3.5 inch drive. The system backplane or cable must deliver single-ended or LVD termination matching the drive configuration. Ensure an available power connector and that the operating system recognises 18 GB SCSI volumes without special drivers.

Questions about this item

How can I verify the 15000RPM Ultra160 SCSI drive is operating correctly after installation?

The drive should spin up immediately, be detected by the SCSI BIOS at 18GB capacity, and show no SCSI bus errors during POST.

What is included with the ST318452LC and what must I supply separately?

The unit ships with a 3.5-inch caddy or tray; you must provide a compatible Ultra160 SCSI controller, cables, terminator, and mounting screws.

Which version of the 18GB 15000RPM Ultra160 SCSI drive should I choose between part numbers 06P5767 and 06P5769?

Both part numbers refer to the same ST318452LC model with identical 18GB capacity, 15000RPM speed, and Ultra160 interface.
