I thought the price was quite reasonable. I expected a higher one. We have
customers that collect tons of raw laser data and images in our systems.
Getting these in to the office in a simple few step way is worth lots. We
currently use 20 and 100 GB external firewire disks. They want bigger. Of
course, we warn them that if the transfer media is bigger, the measurement
crew will wait longer before doing a backup, resulting in greater potential
data loss should something go wrong.
