StorageSupply ?
Although perhaps strictly redundant, all the other objects have Storage as a prefix, so perhaps we should try to continue this. I'm not a fan of StorageLibrary as, to me, it sounds quite tape-specific (people tend not to talk about libraries of disks, right?). StorageSupply would be OK; but for me, "supply" doesn't hint strongly that it's the physical medium/media we're referring to. I did a quick hunt through an online thesaurus. Would one of these be useful? StorageRepository StorageVault StorageSource StorageBase StorageArchive StorageWarehouse Cheers, Paul. (or we could just call it StorageStash)
