Which hard drive is faster SCSI or SATA?
I am completely confused.
Earlier i thought scsi would be faster give up-to 15k. But recently I go through one article i get to know about sata ii.
Could some one help me on this?

Correct – just because the drive interface is faster doesn’t mean the drive itself is
Besides I haven seen a drive with a SCSI interface in years

Hello,
You are mixing up bus speed and actual drive capabilities. You can have a 7,200 RPM with a sata connector and also a very fast ssd with sata connector. Same applies to scsi and sas bus.

Thanks rewalmilo & @rainer_emc
I got ur points... But one question in this point, SAS belongs to SCSI or SATA..
Name itself confusing me as Serial Attached SCSI...
I guess its belong to SATA family right..?
