Don't bother with SCSI.  It's definitely faster than IDE, but it's not
worth the price for a desktop system.  You'll probably be a lot
happier running a RAID0 over two 120GB IDE drives (provided your
motherboard has a RAID BIOS, or you buy a dual-channel PCI RAID
adapter such as the Promise TX2000)
