That's not what I said. If you're going to quote me, get it right. > My statement only operates in the domain where > there ARE comparable models. You say that SCSI disks are more expensive than comparable IDE disks. I say that it's usually impossible to find an IDE disk that truly *is* comparable to a SCSI disk - and when you do, you're generally comparing the most recent IDE disk to an older SCSI disk. If nothing but peak transfer rate is all that matters to you in a hard drive, then yes, you can find comparable IDE and SCSI disks - but if that's all that matters, you're being pretty short-sighted. And to compare nothing but drive features when talking about your disk I/O subsytem is also very short-sighted. steve ---------------------------(end of broadcast)--------------------------- TIP 4: Don't 'kill -9' the postmaster
