4 x 73GB would be 210GB after raid 5 right? That should be good
for 100 to 150 hours of recordings. I use a 160GB drive and can
store over 100 hours. I think I have a 2.5M bit rate.
Unless you want to archive long term, I wouldn't worry too much about
the posts saying you will need more disk. Set it up and see how
fast you go through it. 73GB scsi drives are not cheap.<br>
