RE: IDE or SCSI ??
I agree, I have about 340 active domains, and my stats for may's webserver
traffic was
hits: 9,498,039
Outgoing Bytes: 58,937,127,164
Visitors: 225,193
Page Views 1,401,266
My machine is a P2 350 with 250 megs of ram. I am RARELY over .75 load
during the day (peak time for us). I also run quite a few cgi's (mostly ANSI
C).

One thing to consider is the amount of load. 300 domains * 300 visits /
86400 seconds in a day = 1.03 visits per second.
For such a small load I doubt that you'll need much IO, memory, or CPU,
unless it's all CGI-BIN stuff.
