Version 1.5 of Redux has much improved handling of missing disks including
rebuilding the directory file if the first disk is damaged or lost.
You can also look at the directory for any backup set and have multiple
named backup sets. They had also improved the scripting language, so that
Redux is now even more flexible.

Just a very satisfied user,
