The Atlas 10K achieves this through its industry-topping 10,000RPM rotational speed, quick 5ms average seek time, 26MB per second peak sustained throughput, large 2MB buffer, and its industry-leading Ultra 160/m SCSI interface.

Ultra 160/m SCSI, based on Ultra3 SCSI specifications, provides twice the data transfer rate of its predecessor, Ultra2 SCSI, to reach a transfer rate of 160MB per second. It uses double-edge clocking to achieve this transfer rate, which is essential for high-bandwidth applications, such as clustered servers, file/print and email servers, engineering and graphics workstations, relational databases, and data warehousing. Ultra 160/m SCSI also features cyclical redundancy checking, which is important to maintain data integrity when you are hot-swapping drives in RAID environments. Another core feature of Ultra 160/m SCSI is domain validation, which enhances subsystem manageability through intelligent network testing. Ultra 160/m SCSI is fully compatible with current SCSI implementations.
