Does this hold true still under heavy concurrent-write loads?  I'm
preparing yet another big DB server and if SATA is a better option,
I'm all (elephant) ears.

Correct me if I'm wrong, but I've never heard of a 15kRPM SATA drive.

Best I have seen is 10k but if I can put 4x the number of drives in the array at the same cost... I don't need 15k.

       choose an index scan if your joining column's datatypes do not
       match
