If you want to stay with the onboard scsi you'll be limited to around
10gig sized drives at around 10mb/s (I don't know the exact figures
offhand). The larger scsi drives will need a pin converter, as they
have more pins and won't connect directly to the onboard bus without
the conversion. You'll still be limited to the smaller bandwidth
however.

If you want the higer speeds, then the best way is to either get a
faster pci scsi card or get a ATA/IDE card for it. Otherwise you could
always have a few 8-10 gig drives daisy chained on the bus for larger
storage space.
