Yep. Except, as I mentioned, a couple of spare tapes in your tapecycle would be a really good idea. What if, say, the drive eats on of your tapes (or there's some write error). Whatever was on that tape is gone, and it may very well be your only level 0 of a particular filesystem. -- Joshua Baker-LePain Department of Biomedical Engineering Duke University
