Now We’re Scanning!

So I have decided to start digitizing a very large volume of paper records collected over the past ten years I have owned and operated my private business. There are just too many pages, and too many various sizes, for me to hire a document company to do it at 15 cents a page. I figured that could cost me from $10 to $15 thousand!?!
Last year I started with a desktop scanner. A nice little Fujitsu duplex straight feed model 5110C. It does color and black and white, great software, good resolution, okay speed (15ppm).
While cruising my favorite shopping site eBay, I noticed a plethora of used Fujitsu M4097Ds being unloaded from business use. This model had both flatbed and ADF capability, duplex, and better speed (50 ppm). Only thing is, I needed to get a SCSI card. I ‘ll let you know haw this works out after I get hooked up.
Anyone have any thoughts, feelings, insights, suggestions, rants, etc.?
