Note: /I/ was explicitly speaking about IDE RAID, SCSI RAID is very
different, you can take the disk packs out of a SCSI RAID array, and stick
them in a different machine and it will rebuild fine. SCSI RAID striping
scemes are standardised and have been for a long time.

Also, I have never had a SCSI RAID system die on me, nor do I know anyone
who has. This is a sharp contrast to HW IDE RAID.

The latency issues are probably still there, but if they dont cause you
problems then I guess its OK. SCSI seek times are generally faster, so
maybe that helps.
