This depends and correct me if I am wrong, when you use scsi, you can get this benefit of using two different hard drives and getting a performance benefit. The last I remembered, if your using ide, this is not the case unless you have them on two different ide cards.. Even though an ide card can handle two hard drives, it can only read from them one at a time hence the performance wouldn't be there...
