 Is there a certain function/feature that I can look for in version 7 to
know if it has what Bacula needs?

 Interesting.  Mind if I ask why? I need to back up close to 100 gigs.
Why not write that to media that holds ~4 gigs per piece instead of to
something that holds ~800 megs?

 With advances in capacity of optical media, is the general opinion that
seemingly older technology is "better" for backups?  Not trying to start
a religious flame war, just wondering if there's something that others
know about backup media that I need to learn. :)
