As a note, if you're going to use the disk for backups then duplicate off;

newer versions (6.5+ of netbackup can use SLP's (Storage Lifecycle Policies) to 
manage disk space but only with the AdvancedDisk, BasicDisk doesn't allow you 
to use SLP's

If you're running older versions of NB or you prefer vaulting this wouldn't 
apply.
