That would work fine.

Now If I add a drive do I only have to add one more to magazine_bays and
add a magazine to vchanger config or is there some more planning that is
needed?

Also if one of my disks breaks how would I now identify what
volumens/jobs in bacula is now invalid so they can be deleted from the
database. Maybe this is obvious once I start doing some actual tests, I
guess it's possible to match the slot number to disk or?
