I decided to change from SCSI to IDE, because IDE is simply better.
yes, better.
no active/passive termination, no ID, no adapter,no other crap and you should compare price of for eg. 500Gb IDE and SCSI disks. what? you cant find 500Gb SCSI?

when I changed from 4Gb SCSI to 80Gb IDE, speed was dramaticaly increased probably due to greater storage density,
and not to mention noise/heat of those old SCSI disks.

I don't care much about CPU usage, 'cause Amiga is slow for realtime applications anyway.

IDE is builtin anyway so its much simpler to use it. and you can get cool looking round cables.
SATA might be even better, if there is adapter.
