Q: How many DECTapes (images) can fit on a 1TB HDD?
(Also note, this is a "trick" question).
Have fun. It'll be interesting to see the answers! :-)
With or without filesystem overhead on the HDD? If with, using what
filesystem? And what size of allocation unit?
For some "real" definition of TB, or some marketing garbage like TiB
or whatever? For that matter, what make and model of drive?
Or for a different approach...how high do you want to stack them? ;)
You're a sicko for starting this. ;) *poke*
