Bud, I suppose this would depend upon if this is a production enviornment or not. One of the many reasons I go with scsi is the fact they have a higher reliability rating than what ide drives have. Another one is the fact that scsi makes better use of command queing, which is to reschedule commands to minimize seek times and maximize throughput. With everything there will be a cost factor involved and only you can warrant the spending of the extra $$.
