The experts really don't know what's going to happen.  Fibre channel =

Right now, Serial ATA can't touch the speed of SCSI.  Nor does anything =
on the roadmap.

SCSI is also a shared bus.  Thus allowing external storage to be share =
by two servers.  Clustering for example.

smash scsi into oblivion?
