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.
