Hi.. if you are looking for performance, this is the table: 1st.- IBM 2nd.- SGT (Certance) 3th.- HP If you are looking for cost $$$$$: 1st.- SGT (cheaper) 2nd.- HP 3th.- IBM $$$$$$ and.. if you are looking for durability: 1st.- IBM 2nd.- HP 3th.- SGT and.. the tape drives with more...

The configuration of L20 does not affect the settings of the tape drives. STK configure the tape drives that comes with your library, and sets the default configuration of the LTO tape drives. And this is "compression: enabled". Then, the only reason can be the follow things: 1: the data that...
