As I have already said, the combination of velocity generation with a different 
random seed will give you (in theory) independent trajectories.  How many 
replicates you run is up to you.  I certainly hope that, after all I've said, 
you're still not intending on simply running 3-ns simulations, regardless of how 
many replicates you run.  If you're looking at loop movements, you won't answer 
your questions with such little data.
