What is the size/volume of your archive?

It's hard to say at this point. We just migrated from our mainframe based
system using CA-Dispatch for report distribution to an AS/400 based system
using Robot REPORTS.

As HDD/SSD become larger and cheaper, archiving to DASD may be a viable option.

On our mainframe system we had all report archives on DASD, but we had a
Shark DASD array. The powers that be would prefer to have report archives
on disk with our new system, but the disks they want them on are in a
Windows file server, which doesn't appear to be a option. They feel that
AS/400 DASD is too expensive to be used for report archives.
