Yes we do, cause we use tapes. ;^)
With using the "Max Use Duration" you can limit the use of your disks.
When you set it to 23h you make sure it wont get used after that -> e.g. for
the next days backup. And they remain "used" for the "Volume Retention", 6 days
in your config.
Looks good, doesnt it? :]
