I've done a lot of testing of SCSI/RAID > SATA hardware for companies
dealing with higher end server and SAN hardware. My experiences tell me to
stay away from it. The emulation that occurs to allow the SATA use on the
SCSI bus is usually a hack at best. I have yet to see a implementation
that was not full of bugs.
