Depends on the media - max is 4.7 GB/side.

Yes it can, but it's relatively slow and if you're backing up more than
4.7 GB there's manual intervention required to switch media.

 How can I find out  the capacity of media on the DVD device on our
relatively new AS400, and can it be used as a backup device instead of
device TAP01?
