What Is This Tool?
This converter transforms data transfer rates measured in modem (110), a slow legacy serial communication speed, into SCSI (Ultra-3), a parallel storage interface speed used in enterprise and backup systems. It is designed for users who need to compare or translate between legacy and modern data transfer standards.
How to Use This Tool?
-
Enter the value in modem (110) units representing the data transfer rate
-
Select modem (110) as the original unit and SCSI (Ultra-3) as the target unit
-
Click the convert button to see the equivalent speed in SCSI (Ultra-3)
-
Review the results and use them for performance benchmarking or documentation
Key Features
-
Converts data transfer speeds from modem (110) to SCSI (Ultra-3)
-
Supports legacy and modern interface speed comparison
-
Browser-based and easy to use
-
Useful for vintage computing and IT diagnostics
-
Provides examples of conversions for clarity
Examples
-
10 modem (110) equals 8.59375e-7 SCSI (Ultra-3)
-
100 modem (110) equals 8.59375e-6 SCSI (Ultra-3)
Common Use Cases
-
Comparing vintage teleprinter data rates with modern storage interfaces
-
Emulating or documenting legacy serial link performance
-
Benchmarking storage subsystem throughput in IT diagnostics
-
Evaluating compatibility in data-center backup systems
-
Managing enterprise storage and RAID controller connections
Tips & Best Practices
-
Verify unit selections carefully before conversion
-
Use this tool primarily for analytical, historical, or benchmarking purposes
-
Understand that the converted values represent very different technology scales
-
Apply results to documentation or system emulation for legacy and modern equipment
-
Combine conversions with other data transfer measurements for comprehensive analysis
Limitations
-
The conversion connects vastly disparate technologies with different data transfer magnitudes
-
Modem (110) speeds are extremely slow compared to SCSI (Ultra-3), producing very small fractional values
-
Converted figures have limited practical equivalence beyond analytical or historical contexts
-
Not suitable for real-time or performance-critical applications
Frequently Asked Questions
-
What does modem (110) represent in data transfer?
-
Modem (110) represents a legacy modem speed of about 110 bits per second used in early dial-up and teletype communications.
-
What is SCSI (Ultra-3) used for?
-
SCSI (Ultra-3) is a parallel storage interface standard used for connecting hard drives, RAID controllers, and tape drives in enterprise and backup systems.
-
Why is the converted value from modem (110) to SCSI (Ultra-3) so small?
-
Because modem (110) speeds are extremely slow compared to the much faster SCSI (Ultra-3), conversions result in very small fractional values.
Key Terminology
-
Modem (110)
-
A legacy modem speed of approximately 110 bits per second used in early dial-up and teletype communications.
-
SCSI (Ultra-3)
-
A parallel interface standard for storage devices specifying data transfers between hosts and storage hardware in enterprise environments.
