Provides a clear understanding of vastly different data transfer technologies
-
Useful for historical data communication comparisons and compatibility testing
-
Browser-based and easy to use for quick calculations
Examples
-
1 SCSI (Ultra-2) equals approximately 5,818,181.82 modem (110)
-
0.5 SCSI (Ultra-2) equals approximately 2,909,090.91 modem (110)
Common Use Cases
-
Assessing relative speeds between block-storage interfaces and legacy serial links
-
Historical analysis of modem and data communication rates in vintage computing
-
Protocol compatibility testing for data center and legacy system environments
-
Documenting legacy telemetry or serial link speeds specified in low bit rates
Tips & Best Practices
-
Use the converter to understand scale differences rather than precise performance metrics
-
Refer to the tool for educational or comparative purposes in data transfer history
-
Consider the vastly different technologies when interpreting conversion results

Conversion is primarily for historical comparison, not real-time application
-
Does not evaluate actual performance or suitability for contemporary environments
Frequently Asked Questions
-
What does SCSI (Ultra-2) represent?
-
SCSI (Ultra-2) is a parallel Small Computer System Interface standard that uses Low Voltage Differential signaling for improved data transfer and longer cable lengths, primarily used for block storage and peripherals.
-
What is modem (110) used for?
-
Modem (110) indicates a modem transmission speed of about 110 bits per second, historically used for early dial-up teleprinter and teletype communication links.
-
Why convert SCSI (Ultra-2) to modem (110)?
-
Conversion helps compare modern high-performance storage interface speeds with legacy low-speed serial communication rates, aiding compatibility analysis and historical context.
Key Terminology
-
SCSI (Ultra-2)
-
A parallel Small Computer System Interface standard using Low Voltage Differential signaling for enhanced data transfer and device interfacing.
-
modem (110)
-
A legacy modem transmission speed of approximately 110 bits per second, used in early dial-up and teletype communication.
-
Data Transfer Rate
-
The speed at which data is transmitted from one device or system to another, measured in units like bits per second.
