In light of all the discussion on the "Ideal" IMail Server config and
assuming I will have a bit of time free during the holidays I am attempting
to pull all these discussions together in a summary.

While RAID levels have been beat to death. I would to ask to ask opinions on
IDE vs SCSI to include in this.

At todays drive and RAID controller specs:

     To what level can IDE preform Satisfactorily
     At what point does SCSI become the best option over IDE.
     General information on IDE vs SCSI controllers ?

Given a server delivering say 5k-10k of messages (after any pre IMGATE,
Declude, Other processing)   IDE ? - SCSI ?

Given a server delivering say 15k-20k of messages (after any pre IMGATE,
Declude, Other processing)   IDE ? - SCSI ?

Given a server delivering say 75k-100k of messages (after any pre IMGATE,
Declude, Other processing)   IDE ? - SCSI ?

Given a server delivering say 150k-200k of messages (after any pre IMGATE,
Declude, Other processing)   IDE ? - SCSI ?

Thanks

Stu
