I would suggest you do most of your shopping for new stuff IMO main reason to go with SCSI is reliability of every SCSI product. For example, I've seen lots and lots of dead IDE hard drives, but _never_ seen a real SCSI HDD die (I have an old 200Mb one that still works well). Note that I'm talking here about real SCSI drives, but not just a regular IDE HDD with SCSI interface; also, I have no experience with the newer stuff (SCSI drives over ~40Gb) 17.11.2003; 20:02:13 [SorAlx] http://cydem.org.ua/
