I'll second FreeNAS. I have it running with 4x 750 GB drives and it's been rock solid. SMB to the Windows machines and NFS to *nix and my popcornhour.com media tank.
LTO4 drives can't read DLT tapes. You need to maintain a DLT drive to read the "archived" data on DLT media.
Yeah, I mis-typed/spoke. I meant backward compatible all the way back through LTO. Although we did have some archives on DLT at one time. Currently we run live stuff off to a stand-alone RAID 6 chassis and things that need to be held for years get popped to tape.
You may also need to maintain the backup software and possibly even the server the software is running on if it isn't cross platform.
We're migrating from Legato on an old SGI machine ($$$). It's not bad but expensive.
What do you do for long-term archiving? I'm always interested in the "tape == poo" camp's thoughts.
I'd hope they would have more than just one drive. Our library holds 4 drive units. Even if they all fail the fact is LTO is an open standard so finding compatible drives isn't an issue.
How would you archive several TB of data for several years?
Guess I'm in trouble. I just installed a 48 tape LTO4 library at work for our archival storage. 800 GB per tape uncompressed (up to 1.6 TB compressed).
I wouldn't outlaw any religion... but I'd remove any special exemptions they may get, any special laws that give them privileges and would tax them like any other business.
Give me "In 10 Minutes" stock quotes and I'll pay for that!
I just bought several hundred thousand shares of some stocks that are supposed to go through the roof next week. Many emails from good friends who's names I don't recognize recommended them!
Oh I have.:) The Director's Cut was among the first DVDs I ever owned. As a birthday present I received the ultra deluxe set of the Final Cut with 5 DVDs in a cool case and have the 720p version as well.
I watched Blade Runner in the theatre. Came out thinking "WTF did I just see?" (and that was with Ford's voiceover explaining everything!) I was confused yet knew there was something there. Bought the widescreen VHS a while later and it really grew with each viewing.
Now I'm a diehard fan and just love it. My gut feeling hints that most big fans weren't until they had a few viewings.

Flamebait? The mods are politically-correct dumbfucks.
Oh I wasn't trying to make OpenVPN sound like it's a super solution but it does work well for its purpose.
At work our sites tie together with IPSEC and our laptop users roam around the world connecting via OpenVPN.
OpenVPN can run over UDP as well, it defaults to port 1194.
Hahahaha, man I was laughing so hard at this comment someone came to my office to see what was so funny. :)
Well, castration for males seems to improve longevity by about 20% IIRC.
Weird, when I was married I felt my life slipping away.
She found, to her delight, that her rather rare name was the stage name of a porn star
Your mother-in-law was Emily Tubgirl?!
Hitler liked for his niece to squat and pee on his face
Tsk tsk, insulting Hitler's good name like that.
Most black and white movies suck actually.
1) Get stoned
2) Put on 3 Stooges videos
3) ???
4) Laughter.
I used to chat with girls online, meet them, and stick my penis into their vagina.
Where did you dump the bodies?

If they cure autism, what am I supposed to do to find postal codes if Billy the office cleanup boy is cured? Look them up online?
Although it does require a read of the bible and the ability to carry over information that you actually understand from one book to another.
Much like how "Green Eggs and Ham" sounds like some made up stories until you carry over information from "Hop on Pop".

They still haven't found a shred of evidence for Jesus or his magic tricks but much older things? No problem.

Our new LTO4 drive is backward compatible with previous LTOx and DLT drives. These go back at least a decade. :)

And I'm posting here because NYCL is precisely the kind of self-absorbed cunt that makes the world so unbearable.
Would a self-absorbing cunt require tampons? No idea why that thought popped into my head.
We can finaly fill up more than 8 TB on this FS. Anyone up to try?(with what?)
Rookie. My swap space is 8 TB.
I was going to make a joke but then realized you're an old timer... :P
Would you outlaw that religion?

I only read DADoES within the last few years. Had it here for ages in my "To Read" shelf but never got to it.
