I'm currently running 5-CURRENT but I'm heading for 5-STABLE. I've noticed the new DVD burners that support "multi-layer" (at least that is what today's Best Buy ad calls them) DVDs. Since it doubles the capacity, and my first application would be to back machines up, I've been watching the mailing lists since I first became aware of them. I'm leaning towards a USB or Firewire connected external unit (again to move the device from machine to machine for backup) but I have not seen anything on FreeBSD support for the devices. I searched the mailing list archives but could not find anything. Can someone clue me in on these devices and FreeBSD support for both internal and external drives? TIA...
