[comp.sys.amiga] SCSI vs IBM hard drive

perley@mazda.steinmetz (Donald P Perley) (08/10/88)

If I get a hard drive for my B2000 I can choose either IBM or SCSI
style drives. I gather from the net that the SCSI protocal supports
faster data transfer. Great, maybe I will get one of those. I start
looking at ads, and notice that most of the PC drive ads give access
speed, but ALL the SCSI drive ads just give the capacity.  Why?  How
does one tell sh*t from shinola with SCSI drives?  What brands should
be sought/avoided?  How do you know if a given model would do better
than something in an IBM style?
