please excuse the random spewing of ideas: i work at a radio station, and it would be awesome if i could record insanely long periods of time (for quality control). i'd love to be able to record 24/7, with new audio replacing old. a 400gig drive could hold two weeks of 16-bit 44.kHz stereo audio. how long could it survive constant writing? alternatively, are there any one-line commands that will simply record continuously to a series of files until a partition runs out of space? -- daneasley@xxxxxxxxx dan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx dan@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx http://towndowner.com http://burntpossum.com
