a more solid enterprise type drive, everyone's mileage varies.
We have moved to using all SATA drives in our newer servers. I
have to admit most of our databases are smaller than what many
on this list have. All our db's are under
500 megs. My reality is this. If a SATA drive does fail,
so far only 1 over the last 18 months, it is cheap and easy
to replace. I have all my setups raided so we have no lost
data. At the same time I have several Hitachi/IBM SCSI drives...
What controller do you use for RAIDing the SATAs?
