I'll give that a try, thanks.

Are there perhaps any way's to run the updater with low disk priority?

Cheers,

Tony's probably right. Regardless of the type of drive, you're going to be

As a test, try turning off logging temporarily on one of the servers while
you perform an update in the background.
