IDE, SATA, or SCSI?

Just like the topic says: IDE, SATA, or SCSI? What do you guys think from experience about these three types of drives? Is there big performance differences between the three? The machines I have now are dual 2.8 xeon with 1-2gb of memory using SATA, seems to be running great.

Any in depth information you can give me about these three drives in the Linux server environment would be greatly appreciated. Please post your personal experiences good or bad and what you have found out to work. I'm building co-location boxes right now and want to stay up to par with the performance. I'm trying to see where I can save money and where I can't save money.
