Don't buy those drives. That's unrelated to whether you use hardware
or software RAID.
Sorry that is an extremely misleading statement. SATA RAID is perfectly
acceptable if you have a hardware raid controller with a battery backup
controller.
And dollar for dollar, SCSI will NOT be faster nor have the hard drive
capacity that you will get with SATA.
Sincerely,
