These drives will simply hold a directory that will be used for backup purposes, not anything with sys, daemon or user files. I would like to set up a backup system that dumps all data from a given number of machines onto that hard drive that I can then swap out at given intervals of time - and not have to take down the backup sys every time I need to swap out the drive. Does anyone know of any hot swap interfaces that have been a workable solution for a FreeBSD box? (Suggestions or comments are welcome...)
