Prad,
Have a look at this URL: http://www.pugetsystems.com/articles.php?id=19
While I found this interesting, I also
The concept that SATA subsystems will tend to consume more CPU cycles because

untrue. SATA disk consumes really small amount of CPU under FreeBSD. even
if it's less than on SCSI controller it is still very little.

I have a SCSI controller, two cd-rom drives and the external tape
streamer on my workstation. No SCSI harddisk anymore. A 18 or 36GB
harddisk is likely to be the SCSI-2 standard, this is the controller I have.
In the past it was quite a speedy interface, but I guess even the older ATAs
Hi,

i've heard scsi hard drives are really good.
i've also seen at least one site which claims that ide easily
outperform scsi.
for the server we got (dual P3 1GHz 2M which will use raid), is one
preferable over the other? and what about sata?

I seriously doubt that. Maybe if you take a single old first
generation SCSI disk and compare it to a modern IDE drive. But that's
not exactly comparing apples to apples

SATA are too.

the performance are similar by interfaces, SCSI drives tend to have higher
RPM and faster heads and can be 30-50% faster for 5 times higher price

Prad,
Have a look at this URL: http

we have a chance to buy 18G scsi at $5 or 36G for $25.
what the seller isn't sure about is whether they will be compatible
with the particular server.
the server has a 36G seagate (ST336705LC) in it. the 18G are compaqs

with THAT price - SCSI make sense :)

SCSI is SCSI. unless the device doesn't comply to standards (unlikely) it

i also came across the following in this article from 1999:
Seagate is committed to Ultra3 SCSI and plans
