This Harddrive was originally shipped with an Octane/SI, which I have upgraded to SI-T and newer Harddisk.
This IBM-HDD is running quite silent, and has a scorpion-logo on its PCB on the back. I find therse quite robust in comparison to the later models. There are many 68 and 80pin variants on ebay, which appareantly work with older SGI machines like Crimson with the cheap chinese SCA-to-50PIN adapters.

SGI - the legend will never die!!
