For private use, IDE is much cheaper than SCSI and for a test installation
you don't see any performance lost. But if you would have access with more
users to an oracle-db, SCSI will be your friend, because you can write and
read at the same time to the database (IDE writes and than read and not at
the same time) and the acces time of SCSI is mostly faster than on IDE HDDs.
