I recently installed an HP Ultrium 230e tape drive. The unit is supposed to have a throughput of 15mb/s. However when using Backup Exec 8.6 the throughput is at about 1.5mb/s. I have ran an HP utility (Pat) which tests the computers throughput. According to the tool the computer should be able to achieve Ultrium speeds. I have visited several forums where users have experineced the same issue but no solution was given. I have attached the Ultrium drive to a seperate 160 controller and then to another 160 controller that has hard drives attached. Under bnoth conditions throughput was the same.
Has anyone had a similar problem with Backup Exec?
