Hi
Not entirely and only related to amanda but i'm sure people have done this before so here we go ;)
Linux amanda server (WBEL4) and its using filedriver for virtual tapes as client does not want to spend $$$ on an LTO3 drive - a LOT of data here.
So anyone used USB2/Firewire external HDD's as their virtual tapes? How does amanda/Linux handle this? I presume that amanda does not really care and that this is prehaps more a Linux question but any gotchas? makes to avoid? Does Linux mind hotplugging? 

Thanks guys
