Out of curiosity, what software are you using to burn the DVDs? I am looking
into this (for data backup) and can't get a clear feeling for whether
standard cdrecord does so. Isn't there a 'pro' or something that one needs

Firewire works great. We use an Iomega Peerless (only 20 GB) and it
transfers at 15 MB per second. As to USB, you will want USB 2 for similiar
speed.
The only problem I have had with firewire disks on Linux is getting an sbp2
device driver that loads ok. I have also had trouble if the firewire

How do I keep the monitor from blanking both in X and the command line? I
think I have X figured out using Option DPMS NO in the XF86Config-4
