What Is This Tool?
This converter allows you to translate data-transfer values from modem (110) speeds, representing early dial-up bit rates, to SCSI (Fast Ultra Wide) data interface rates, commonly used in legacy storage systems.
How to Use This Tool?
-
Enter the value in modem (110) units representing the data transfer rate.
-
Select modem (110) as the source unit and SCSI (Fast Ultra Wide) as the target unit.
-
Initiate the conversion to view the equivalent SCSI (Fast Ultra Wide) rate.
Key Features
-
Converts data rates from modem (110) to SCSI (Fast Ultra Wide)
-
Supports legacy data transfer units from early telecommunication and storage systems
-
Easy-to-use interface suitable for vintage computing and archival work
-
Displays conversions based on established conversion factors
Examples
-
110 modem (110) units converts to 3.78125e-5 SCSI (Fast Ultra Wide)
-
1000 modem (110) units converts to 0.00034375 SCSI (Fast Ultra Wide)
Common Use Cases
-
Comparing legacy low-speed serial telecommunication data rates with high-throughput parallel storage interfaces
-
Emulating or analyzing historical dial-up and teletype communication performance
-
Maintaining or documenting legacy storage and data transfer technologies in archival projects
-
Evaluating legacy computing or protocol compatibility involving modem and SCSI interfaces
Tips & Best Practices
-
Verify the unit definitions and contexts before performing conversions due to legacy technologies involved
-
Use this tool primarily for comparison, documentation, or testing rather than precise throughput planning
-
Consider the theoretical nature of conversions between serial modem speeds and parallel SCSI interfaces
Limitations
-
The modem (110) data rate is extremely low, making conversions largely theoretical
-
SCSI (Fast Ultra Wide) indicates interface capability rather than a strict physical unit
-
Conversion results are approximate and intended for contextual understanding or compatibility testing
Frequently Asked Questions
-
What does modem (110) represent in data transfer?
-
Modem (110) denotes a transmission speed of about 110 bits per second used in early dial-up and teletype communication systems.

What is SCSI (Fast Ultra Wide)?
-
SCSI (Fast Ultra Wide) is a legacy parallel interface mode that combines wider data buses with faster signaling for higher throughput in storage device connections.
-
Why convert from modem (110) to SCSI (Fast Ultra Wide)?
-
Conversions help compare legacy low-speed serial data rates with high-throughput storage interfaces, useful in vintage computing and archival contexts.
