I would like some suggestions for future use of Pandora2, the CD/DVD
duplication system.
Its current 60GB hard drive can hold 56 CD images, at the moment there
are 49 installed. About half are more than one year old. The oldest
is Fedora Core 3, dating to late 2004.
I have had no requests for production of older CD images, and propose
that the drive be treated as a ring buffer, deleting old files to make
room for new ones.
There is also a 160GB drive in a carrier that can be swapped in. I
will probably start using it to hold DVD images. Until now, I have
just been duplicating DVDs from reader to writer, without storing on a
hard drive.
With the primitive "file system" implemented in the ROM-based
firmware, each CD image takes up 1GB on a disk, each DVD image takes
5GB, and they can not be mixed on the same physical device.
Comments are welcome.
