You don't want one of those, you want a bunch of smaller ones to
stripe (or at least manually balance the load on). As for cost, well,
yes, you could buy a 9GB SCSI or 27GB IDE drive at the same price, but
you've got to ask yourself if your anger and frustration at IDE is
worth the saving. This will depend on how much of a life you have
outside of computing to spend your money on 8)
