We have some 3, 4, and 6GB hard drives if anyone wants them for the cost of shipping. However, some of them have bad blocks (and they have been wiped using gdisk).
And Jeffrey has a 40MB (that's MB, not GB) hard drive installed in his Amiga 1200 (currently mothballed), and an 800MB drive in an external case he uses for data storage with his Amiga emulator on his Windows 7 desktop system (and about a dozen 100MB zip disks, as well).

When I arrived here eight years ago, we had 32 gigs of data. Now we have over 2 TBs... Just buy larger servers... -----Original Message----- From: Stephen Wimberly [mailto:swimbe...@gmail.com] Sent: Friday, December 03, 2010 12:17 PM To: NT System Admin Issues Subject: Re: document sprawl I have attempted to tackle this issue before, I like to call it "encourage spring cleaning!" but my words always seem to fall on deaf ears. Lately every time I bring it up we end up buying more hard drives for the server! I give up. Maybe I'm just too cheap?
