[geeks] SCSI vs SATA

I've seen a couple of lab benchmarks saying SATA is close to SCSI in
terms of performance for many things, but does anyone have any
real-world experience using SATA drives in servers yet? I'm looking at
getting a couple of new machines for various hosting things (mail,
web, etc) and the pricing on SATA is nice, especially for the size of
drives, but I'm curious if there are any gotchas.

Thanks,
Bryan
