G'day all.

Just wondered if anyone had thoughts on using a CD writer with
FreeBSD-stable as a backup medium.  Does the lack of hard real-timeness
matter? Like, if some other process starts thrashing, will my CD be
ruined?  Is the support for some writers better than others?  Should I
just stick with tape?  

Sharing of experiences would be greatly appreciated.

Cheers,
Andrew Bromage
