Had an interesting experience with this on a recent project.  A client's
image server houses about 300,000 imaged documents.  A lot of data
pumped down the pipe on every request as users view 200k-1mb images in
rapid succession.  

Formerly the thing ran on a 70gb RAID1 u3w scsi.  Now it's a Snap 480gb
ATA.

After keeping mum about performance to rank-and-file staff, then polling
them, I heard reports that there was no slowdown, and some reported a
speed increase (which of course is incorrect).  *I* can see it running
more slowly if I perform bulk administrative tasks, but no real-world
users know the difference.
