Re: archiving P2 cards

I guess no one has ventured to ask, How long do we WANT to archive this stuff?

I am now using a device from weibetech, its a trayless SATA drivebay for Hard drives. I buy 300 Gig Seagate SATA drives for about $64 each, and slip one into the drive bay,( no trays, really nice) and archive my whole project as it sits on my xraid. If I need to acess somethign from that project, I just slip the drive in again, copy what I need off the drive and take it out again. Fast, no special unaccessable formats (retrospect) and. I keep them in anti static bags, and stored well. The only problem I've had with drives are LaCie's, don't get me started on those.

Been working well so far, and with our deadlines, we can't wait to unarchive stuff off Tape, heck who has time to spend 4 hours burning projects to DVD's? I surely don't. Plus I hate having to unarchive the whole project just to get a couple of files.
