My understanding was that the big disadvantage to IDE was that the controllers were 'dumb' ie the CPU had to do most of the IO work. Whereas SCSI takes the load off (as well as being faster, with more devices, and just plain cooler ;) Now with something like the Escalade that does hardware IDE RAID... who's doing the IO work? Is it still the CPU or does the card take over most of the responsibility?
