Yeah, surprising huh? Take a look at some RAID tests
here with SCSI Ultra 320 against some SATA systems. As you can see, despite that the interface is burst capable of 320 M/s - they don't even come close to approaching that figure in average throughput even under a RAID configuration, where as the SATA array was capable of much higher RAID throughput exceeding its single drive limit of 150 M/s as one would expect from a RAID setup. In single drive systems, it may be much closer, but SCSI's days are limited as the highspeed champ. Get a 10,000 RPM SATA HD if you want some serious write ability for capture.
