    I'm running out of disk space on my machine and (so far) am concidering
the following two options for the upgrade:
	a) 2 200M IDE 3.5" drives
	b) 2 200M SCSI 3.5" drivers + Aha-1542b

    Can/should I run each IDE on a separate controller?
    Would the aha-1542b gain enough to justify the price?
    Is my SCSI gain only because I have two controllers? (i.e. if I
    were to buy a single 400M drive does it still make sense)


    thanks.
