One other option is a SCSI controller card with a fast drive. I have
an ATTO card driving a 15,000 rpm SCSI hard drive with a 16 MB cache
on one of my Sawtooths. The largest drives like this are 146 GB (mine
is only 73 GB) so they don't give much more capacity than the ATA bus
but the performance is awesome and they are far less expensive than
Raptors.
