I have used both. From a performance standpoint, the SCSI drives are
probably better, but in practice, you will probably not notice a difference.
However, on most systems, it is easier to boot from an IDE drive than SCSI.
The choice is yours, but I would probably boot from SCSI just because it
SHOULD be the better performer :) .

I have 2 choices of drive, they are both 7200RPM, both Seagate but that's
where the similarities stop. I use an Adaptec Ultra2 SCSI controller (4+
years old at this stage) and 36GB Ultra2 SCSI drive, and in the past this
combination has worked well but not necessarily mind-blowing in terms of
performance.
