Hi,
    Just wondering if anyone has any _objective_ opinion on
the performance of say wide SCSI2 vs. DMA33 IDE drives [running
on contemporary motherboards].  The theoretical throughputs of
40MBs and 33MBs don't tell me a whole lot.  I know SCSI was the
choice for performance in the past, however I'm curious what
others are seeing in actual usage these days.

Thanks,

-john
