Yeah, I know a government customer who does.

Word of caution:

If the Q47 is somewhat dated, you should upgrade the firmware in the library. There is a bug in their firmware that prevents a filer running 5.3 and later from booting. The Q47 firmware in question is version 4.41. Moving to anything later than that will be fine, like 4.43 & 4.53.
