Thanks for the numbers and pointing me to the spool/unspool problem. This can be fixed by using two hard drives, right? The whole thing about costs probably seams to be a bit ridiculous, but unfortunately there is niter money nor understanding for the need here right now. So I'm trying to figure out a cheap way to get to a working system that can be handled somehow. And I'm fully aware of the fact that the hardware investment costs will be a minor part in the actual long term overall costs.
