Here is an image showing the pin diagram of this transistor.The 2SB744A-O transistor can have a current gain of 100 to 200. The gain of the 2SB744A will be in the range from 60 to 320, for the 2SB744A-R it will be in the range from 60 to 120, for the 2SB744A-Y it will be in the range from 160 to 320.Sometimes the "2S" prefix is not marked on the package - the 2SB744A-O might only be marked "B744A-O".The complementary NPN transistor to the 2SB744A-O is the 2SD794A-O.The NZT660 (SOT-223) is the SMD version of the 2SB744A-O transistor. These transistors are of the same type, have similar parameters and are designed for surface mounting.You can replace the 2SB744A-O with the 2SB1167, 2SB1167-R, 2SB1168, 2SB1168-R, BD178, BD180, BD180G, BD190, BD788, BD788G, BD790, BD792, KSB744A, KSB744A-O, KSE171, KSE172, MJE171, MJE171G, MJE172, MJE172G, MJE233, MJE235, MJE250, MJE252 or MJE254.
