or SAS. Lower cost and consumer systems tend to be going with Serial ATA these days. Server systems are moving to Serial SCSI, but often give choices, because SATA is less expensive and currently delivering larger drives. Otherwise, I haven't found much difference in difficulty setting up RAID. I get better speed with LVD SCSI and SAS.
