The disk size is another hint. Scsi drives would be 36 Gb, IDE's 40.

Hadn't noticed that before.  What's the reason?


I don't know why, but most scsi drives run:
9, 18, 36, 72, 146, 300 gig
where most IDEs are
10, 20, 40, 80, 100, 160, 320.

Maybe it's consumer vs. enterprise models - the WD Raptor SATA line seems closer to the scsi sizing.
