A couple of weeks back, someone mentioned they preferred the SCSI to the ATA drives as they lasted longer. I need an internal SCSI drive about 9 GB would be super.
Where can i find one that's not 86 GB and costs $789.00. Prefer Seagate or Lacie OR "best of all" an IBM. The one in my PTP is getting noisy and the picture on the monitor is getting shaky. I'm backing everything up, but it's got me nervous. Need another one for my highly modified PCP240.
I completely disagree with this. I also used to think that SCSI was king, primarily because it had its own controller and freed up the CPU, but every major and catastrophic failure I've had has been a SCSI drive, particularly the Ultra type.
I really think it's worth it to buy an PCI ATA card and put a Maxtor drive in there.
