I suppose you guys know about the Ultra3 SCSI last year Seagate got the jump on Quantum with the Ultra2 SCSI (80mb/s burst) HD's. it seems Quantum's gonna be out the gate first with Ultra3 SCSI (160mb/s burst) HD's I'm not sure if Quantum's drives need to be greater than 10,000 RPM to take full advantage of this new interface. Since Hitachi's 12,000 RPM drives are heat sink encased, I assume these speeds are getting to hot to handle otherwise. Most Windows'NT users will tell you how much better it can run on a SCSI based hard drive, and since Window'2000 is basically NT.5.0, one might assume that this hard drive evolution will evolve beyond the server market, and into the standard workstation market, and possibly the Cadillac consumer market fairly rapidly. just wanna make sure you all know of this, as I did'nt have time to read this thread.
