What does 1 SCSI (Ultra-2) equal in gigabytes per second?

One unit of SCSI (Ultra-2) equals 0.074505806 gigabytes per second (GB/s).

Why convert SCSI (Ultra-2) data rates to GB/s?

Converting to GB/s allows easy comparison with modern storage and network data transfer rates and helps integrate legacy system metrics.

Does the conversion consider binary gigabytes (GiB)?

No, the conversion uses SI gigabytes (10^9 bytes), so results may differ if binary gigabytes are applied.

How to Use This Tool?

Enter the amount of data transfer rate expressed in SCSI (Ultra-2) units.
Select the unit to convert from as SCSI (Ultra-2) and the unit to convert to as gigabyte/second [GB/s].
Review the converted result shown instantly as gigabytes per second.
Use the conversion for performance analysis or integration with current storage benchmarks.

Key Features

Converts SCSI (Ultra-2) data transfer rates into gigabyte per second units.
Based on the exact conversion factor: 1 SCSI (Ultra-2) equals 0.074505806 GB/s.
Supports use cases in data center, storage hardware evaluation, and legacy system integration.
Browser-based and easy to use without needing specialized software.
Facilitates comparison of legacy system speeds with modern storage and network metrics.

Examples

10 SCSI (Ultra-2) converts to 0.74505806 GB/s by multiplying 10 × 0.074505806.
50 SCSI (Ultra-2) converts to 3.7252903 GB/s following the same conversion rate.

Common Use Cases

Converting legacy SCSI (Ultra-2) interface data rates to modern data transfer rate units for comparison.
Evaluating storage device throughput and benchmarking enterprise storage solutions.
Planning data transfer and network link speeds by translating between units.
Integrating older high-performance workstations with new storage systems during upgrades.

Tips & Best Practices

Confirm whether the gigabyte definition used is SI (10^9 bytes) or binary (GiB) to ensure appropriate comparisons.
Use this conversion primarily for legacy equipment analysis and integration due to SCSI Ultra-2 being outdated.
Consider actual protocol overhead when interpreting throughput beyond the raw conversion number.
Keep in mind differences between theoretical and practical transfer rates in real-world scenarios.

Limitations

The conversion assumes the SI gigabyte standard; binary gigabytes (GiB) can lead to different values.
SCSI (Ultra-2) is a legacy technology, so its conversion is mostly relevant for legacy systems.
Practical data transfer speeds may vary due to protocol overhead and device-specific factors.
