Sean you can't backup and restore images from drive image to CDRW or Tape. removable carts are unfortunately the only choice for this. Another very important piece to this puzzle.. Thanks Sean Clarence

for those who've used CDRW, how much of a hassle would it be to save the drive image to HDD (or removable), then copy it to CDRW? Would such a copy work OK in the background? Also, on the same subject, anyone know whether or not putting one of the new EIDE CDRW on the same channel as an HDD would degrade the HDD's performance when the CDRW was not active? My understanding is that with newer boards and chipsets (like BH6/BX), one no longer would suffer such performance gaps. But I'm not sure how valid what I've heard on this is...
