Default SCSI 64 Kit over IDE?

Hello all

I found a SCSI 64 Kit that I have never used and I was thinking about installing it in a MDD G4 and see how it performs. But I've got this question.

According to the specs of the card:

The ExpressPCI-DC card that comes with the SCSI64 Kit is specially pre-configured for use with Pro Tools, with a transfer rate of 20MB/second
and a PCI burst length set at 32 bytes.


Currently I've got a Sonnet Tempo 133 (http://www.welovemacs.com/tat133.html) and two different ATA drives, each one of them connected to a separate bus on the Tempo card. I am using Round Robin allocation for big projects.

Disregarding and £££ to Gb ratio, should I see any performance boost if I switch to the SCSI card and descent SCSI Drives?
