SCSI is no better than IDE. Both protocols have had to add extensions to increase the number of addressable units on a drive. The difference is that SCSI has had to do this three times thus far, whereas IDE only had to extend it once twice ("LBA", then "LBA48"). Other "limits" were PC BIOS, MS filesystems, and MS-Windows issues. And the IDE drives are not the issue here anyway.

The problems here are due to the in-memory database of the player software becoming too large for available memory (RAM).
