Jim,

I trade stocks and receive BMI tick data on all stocks and indexes that are
sent (BMI sends about every other tick).  I retain the TS4 database for six
weeks and then transfer it to CD.  I have one year of BMI tick data on six
CD's so if I were getting 100% of the ticks then maybe it would be 12 CD's -
that's *only* 8 Gb.  The data is stored as Zipped OMZ files - the zip giving
CRC checking ability.

~Bob
