Frequently Asked Questions
- What does clean pull mean?
- The drive was removed from a functioning server during decommissioning — operational at time of removal, not refurbished.
- Is Ultra160 SCSI compatible with Ultra320 controllers?
- Yes — Ultra160 drives operate at Ultra160 speeds on Ultra320 controllers.
The IBM 32P0752 is a practical, cost-effective storage solution for legacy IBM SCSI server environments. Clean-pull condition means it was working when removed — a reliable choice for SCSI replacement needs.
