In the case of hard disk drives, does fast SCSI provide a significant
performance increase over plain SCSI?  One controller vendor suggested
that fast SCSI pushes the envelope and is more succeptible to failure
and for our purposes will provide no benefit.  Their controller
supports fast SCSI, but they claim plain SCSI will perform just as
well for our application (Unix server with disk attached to intelligent
caching controller).

Can anyone comment?
