Maybe the Bacula experts can correct me if I'm wrong:

Why not split the jobs into 2 pools with a Max Volume bytes of say 700GB.

The 1st Volume writes to Disk one and then the 2nd Volume is written to Disk
2?

Won't this be a work around?

Bad luck for me so far, the disk-changer script works on real files, doing
links and so on. There is no support for usb drives.
