John, << I've had to render multiple 30 second spots, and do multiple composites, etc… where the frame count exceeds the space on my network hardrives (4.5 gigs), and I don't really want to spend $$$ on more HD space (which is NEVER enough anyway) right now >> I think TapeDisk and a Exabyte would be great for something like that when you normaly render out to a hard drive, but in my setup I would always render to the exabyte which would probably kill it in no time from constant use. Right now I have both a 44 and 105mb syquest drives which I render to and that seems to work very good. (except I just wrecked a 105mb cart. last night) I think I'll keep using the syquests for a while until my animations get to big. (I'm doing this for a hobby) Thanks for your help. Mark Yankee
