We use the IBM IDE drives on our servers using 3Ware Escalade's excellent IDE RAID
controller (works in Windows, Linux, and FreeBSD).
You can RAID up to 8 drives, each on their own master ATA-66 for speeds up to 100MB/s
off the raid array. The cost/performance ratio
makes a similar SCSI setup just plain stupid.
