Scsi vs Sata Which one would be better for me ?
« on: May 05, 2009, 01:58:10 PM »
I always think of the performance of scsi vs sata.
On my pc which is an amd64 3200+ i use sata disk and some ide drives too.

However lately i wanted to think wether it would be good to change the sata to scsi.

Reason i am asking this on this amiga forum is because from what i understand amigans always knew more about scsi than any pc user.

I know that i need a good scsi controller and some fast scsi disks.Does scsi outperform sata these days?Back in 2007 i think that scsi was still top in that sense.But what about 2009?

Right now which combo would be the best ? Would it be possible for these scsi dtives to support raid so in someway i can have backups of my data in case there is failure?

Another question that i have is for the amiga i have.
I have set it up to use a cf to ide interface and workbench boots from an installed cf 4gigabyte card.However i have an apollo 68040 card,would it be good if i tried to find an apollo 68040 scsi add on?From what i remember ide hd on a1200 sucks hard when moving small files (i had a complete amiga tosec collection that i wanted to move from one cd rom to a hd drive),and it took SO much time!
