I am getting ready to build the mother of all machines (Dual Xeon 1.7Ghz...). now I would like to hear some opinions about using and SCSI DVD vs an IDE. I am leaning towards the Pioneer DVD 305s (scsi) 106s(ide). or the the most important thing to me is VERY smooth playback, I am using this system as a demo for clients who are considering using my video production services including play pack of content created on Pioneer's DVD recorder. Quite and region free are secondary in that order. It seems that with Pioneer's new utility that I have heard about that this is no longer an issue at least on the 106s. And last but definitely least, I like the slot loader ( although it would be the first to go).
So my question is the pioneer the best choice for my application, and is there any pros/cons to going SCSI over IDE?
What about Toshiba of Panasonic?
Also any hints on where to find at a good price
Thanks
