don't listen to that crap, the scsi drives are built for industrial use. You get what you pay for. Go for the scsi setup you will be glad in the end. as for the raid five config, if you dont have the fault tolerance on (parity stripe) and are just doing it to crank every bit of speed you can out of that box well go for it; but what the other guy said about checking the amount of writes your raid is doing, sounds like a well thought out solution. i know people who have professed their love for ide but when they get a taste of scsi, they rarely go back.
