David: Yeah… that's pretty good. I used Colorado Memory before and the access time from tape load was about 6 minutes… and then about .2 seconds once the tape directory was read… Drives you nuts if you don't know what is on the tape, plus you have to keep adding volumes of the same stuff instead of updating the single volume. Soo…. we ended up with a 'flying' tape and then an 'archive' when we 'thought' the project was finished <Grin>. I'm interested in this because I will create a disk, or two, for each project and keep updating the files. When I'm done with a certain stage of the project that I would like to keep for archive purposes, then I will just get another disk. You don't think this is a good idea because the media isn't stable enough, I gather? C#
