Two 1U chassis to reduce weight and size.

Three hot-swappable SCSI drives to allow for parallel recording in flight and easy migration of data to ground processing.

Graphics card compatible with XFree86 DRI. (See the section called “OpenGL”.)

100T ethernet: multiple NICs and one hub.

Four systems total: two on the aircraft, one hot spare, and one for post-processing access to the data on the ground.

Each aircraft unit will be capable of both recording and displaying the data.
