Each has it's uses. Each has capabilities the other does not
(ATA/100, if nothing else, is likely cheaper :) ). There is little
point in argueing over it for what may or may not be good is totally
deterministic on the situation. Perhaps some ATA spec in the future
will out-do SCSI in all aspects, but I find it unlikely. If it does,
though, will it still be cheaper? :) We shall see, for my crystal
ball is foggy now and I am not able to foretell the future currently.
