SCSI was mandatory for video capture for a very long time until ATA drives got fast and reliable enough. It was also required in the early days of CD burning, for the HDD and the CD burner. Back then a hiccup in the drive, burner or the connector could cause a buffer underrun, ruining a $15 blank CD-R.

But SCSI was a royal PITA.
