Serial drives are hella expensive. I'd buy one if they weren't still small, and uber pricey. I have two serial ports for HDD on my board

For what it's worth... I just picked up the Abit NF7-S and I'm using an IBM 40 gig on Serial ATA through a converter. The bus itself is faster, that's for sure. I'd imagine with an actual Serial ATA drive, it'll scream.

All the SATA drives I've seen are low seek, 10,000 RPM, and way cheaper than SCSI.
