I find that hardrive perforamnce isn't as crucial nowadays primarly due to the large amount of RAM that is present in the average persons computer. with such large amounts of RAM there is far less file swapping performed on the hardrive.
there really isn't anything currently available that can stress a hardrive, even file transfers acrossed a network will saturate your PCI bus before pressuring the hardrive.
I am afraid SCSI is not a realm I am highly familar with, so i cannot say if an adapter would work well enough for your application.
if I were in your position I would purchase a sata drive and a SCSI card for the other devices.I would be content with a much larger, less expensive sata hardrive versus a smaller, much more expensive SCSI drive.
