This is exactly the kind of vendor propaganda I was talking aboutI suggest you read this on the difference between enterprise/SCSI and desktop/IDE drives: http://www.seagate.com/content/docs/pdf/whitepaper/D2c_More_than_Interface_ATA_vs_SCSI_042003.pdf and it proves my point quite well : that there's nothing specific relating to reliability that is different between SCSI and SATA drives cited in that paper. It does have a bunch of FUD such as 'oh yeah we do a lot more drive characterization during manufacturing'. |
