[AccessD] Audit Trails

Hi Michael

That is a valid concern. However, it isn't directly related to auditing if that is what you mean with "this schema".

There are many ways to prevent such total failures, like mirroring, raid systems, on-line local and/or remote backup, clustered servers, etc.

I have a reservation about this schema.

I watched someone tear one of these drives apart trying to connect
to it some other way after it failed.

It brings to mind the addage, 'Don't put all your eggs in one basket.'
Or, at least, make sure you've cloned your eggs.

Hi Max

Exactly my point: 1.3 TB ~1000 * 1.3 GB databases (and how many GB sized dbs do you hold?).
Equals £0.11 or less than a US quarter or ?0.15 euro cents per database. 
Hardly a topic for discussion.

When you consider that last week I bought 1.5Tb HD for £110 sterling from PC
World. Plugs straight into my usb port and comes up as 1.3Tb formatted.

I can make copies to my hearts content and never run out of space.
