I have built quite a few quad-core machines. Mostly AMD, a few Intel. All of them SATA. Recently, I have built 2 RedHat servers for the University of Maryland, all SATA. SCSI is good, no doubt, but expensive. SATA is fast, stable, and cheap and certainly considered and used for server use.

<br>Thanks to everybody who clued me in on what I needed for duel sata,<br><br>I seen a demonstration computer running a quad core processor with SUSE<br>10.3 and thought to myself it time to update the server, I already have
<br>four IDE drives totaling 750G, on a win98/XP system. that somewhat works<br>and a 40G Sata have been playing around with while learning Linux.<br><br>The tech wold seems to be leaning heavily toward SATA for future<br>
developments, So i figured i might as well go that route for now. If I<br>could afford 1T SCSI HD, I would go that route. but as it my planning is<br>going know, I dumping everything into the processor.<br><br> I am going to build a new server with the quad core that is just out or
<br>is coming out, So far I think I going with the Kentfield processor from<br>Intel, unless the Barcelona (sp?) from AMD seems to better suit me when<br>I get it time to go shopping. The Mobo I saw an Asues that I still<br>
