[newbie] scsi drives

[Mike & Tracy Holt]

Hello,
    I'm getting ready to put together a new system and I'm considering using
a scsi hard drive; can anybody tell me if there is much or any performance
gain by doing this?  I've seen quite a few posts on these lists about
problems with scsi cards / scsi devices with Linux; is this normal or should
I expect things to go smoothly?

Thanks for any advise,
Mike
