We are using Win2k server for B/U on a sony 4mm tape using DDS 3 tape on native mode. It takes the whole week for a full B/U two tapes per day (I change in the morning and afternoon)
Supervisor wants either multiple tape drives or tape autoloader. So that We can use the same tapes (DDS 3) and not use third party software.
I want to get a DLT 7 to start new and do a full B/U on thursday nite / friday morning. I need to justify the speed and the overall cost. I know that the tapes are more costly but requires less, and it should be faster on B/U's.
Does anyone eles have any other Ideas?
