	My current hard drive (9Gb Ultra2 SCSI, come original with my B&W G3 400MHz) in my B&W G3 is getting full. Time to upgrade it. Now, I suspect original SCSI card (shipped originally from Apple) is getting a bit flankly, so I probably thinking of replacing the card with a new SCSI card, if I go and get a SCSI drive. What sort of SCSI drive is worthwhile to get nowadays? Oh wait... should I get a Serial ATA drive with a SATA card instead? Are Serial ATA drives as good performance as SCSI drive nowadays? Are SATA drives cheaper than SCSI drives?
