MSSQL DB Server: IDE vs. SCSI - What are the advantages?
We are going to be setting up an e-commerce web site that runs on SQL Server 2000 Standard and we need to purchase a database server and are not sure whether we will have a use for SCSI hard drives or can stick with IDE RAID.
The server will just run SQL SERVER 2000, nothing else. There are no images, or anything like that being stored in the database or on the server, but credit card transactions, and orders will be taking place so we want that to be efficient.
Can someone give a good explanation of which (IDE or RAID) would server us better and why?
Thank you,
Mark
