Wow, I hope not.

Unless you are separating out i386/i486 and such.

Many people refer to i386 as all 32bit x86 systems.

I disagree.

SATA (of any gen) still does not perform like SCSI.  Let's just look
at spindle speed alone ignoring the other benefits of SCSI.

Now, I am not a lover of 32bit either, all of my new systems are amd64
(either Opteron or EM64T systems).
