We have a Compaq Proliant ML370 (running Win2K SP2) attached to an LTO Overland Ultrium LoaderExpress (internal drive is a Seagate Viper) by LVD SCSI. We are using Arcserve 2000 SP3. Backup goes at nearly 400MB/min, but restores only do <10MB/min. There is plenty of info on fixing slow performance, especially over networks, but this is only slow in one direction. Any ideas?

Arcserve 2000 over SCSI. Fast backup, slow restore.

...this problem is stranger than I thought:
Restores start fast, but then the speed falls away over half an hour or so, and eventually the SCSI bus times out or I get fed up waiting.
Seagate say Overland should support us, but to try a non-Compaq SCSI controller. Maybe it will help.
