You spent 8 DL DVD's on a backup? Best price I've heard for DL DVD's is 10 for $20 (just this week) so you spent at least $16 of write-once media, and probably much more if you bought the DVD's before this week.
For about $30 you could have bought an 80GB hard drive, spent less time backing up, and used it over and over again. With removeable rack/tray maybe $45 total. Hope you get find some cheap DL media at a Black Friday sale. Happy TG everyone.

Completed the full volume backups about a week ago and backed up volumes C:, D: and E: each to a separate DVD+R DL disk. I was surprised at the speed of which the backups took place and the number of DVD+R DL disks that were consumed in the process. These are the results running NG 10 RAW without compression Volume C: total time 2 hours 5 disks Volume D: total time 40 minutes 2 disks Volume E: total Time 38 minutes 1 disk. Today is my last day of work thank God we uaually close at 5pm but we'll close at 3pm est makes no diference to me since I get off at 3pm. We may be getting a little snow a first for the season on the right coast. I'd like to wish everyone a happy and safe Thanksgiving.
