[filmscanners] Re: Slightly OT: Hard Drive Speed
You can selectively quote big price lists in both directions.
For instance below are two adjacent entries from pricewatch.com.
In this case the IDE drive is four times the size of the SCSI drive for the

Personally I feel that's a more accurate reflection of the market.
