I've read a review somewhere that compared the SCSI 10k and 15k and a WD Raptor (Maximum PC, I think) and it had the Raptors as having a pretty strong showing - however, back on topic, Seagates only make 7.2k or otherwise 10k and 15k SCSI drives. I'd say the 7.2k Seagates are pretty fast enough though.
