Scsi 160?lvd? Ultrawide? SCSI3 ?-Ide ata100

[Morningstar]

Ok, I don't want to start a war here, how about some facts though. I am curious about the effect of hard drive seek time, and bandwidth (read and write simultaneous) on a pro tools system. The connectivity advantage: In this day of bus mastering IDE's and CDR's is SCSI still superior? Say a SCSI system with the audio disk(s), and cdr connected, should the system disk be SCSI path also, leaving the Cpu free of disk responsibilities. Or should the system disk be an ATA on the motherboard controller? Would this be preferable to say, 2 ata100 drives and the cdrw configured on the 2 ata controllers of a motherboard? preference aside would this have an impact, performance wise on PTLE? If SCSI, which one? Go SCSI 160? What about heat and noise? With the falling prices of the older technology, what about an older standard? USCSI 2, Ultrawide? etc,etc..
Hey, Drastik, your 'Flagship' model is SCSI based, what performance plus is it? I really want to know before I do anything. SCSI Ain't cheap....Thanks for all feedback
