I believe that you can get those transfer rates but they involve 8xx
hardware.  It has to do with the bus speed.

Last week, we upgraded our 3590-B11 to the new H11.

We are getting the benefit of up to 180gig per 'K' Tape with 3:1
compression, but we have not gained any data transfer rate speed.

The IBM annoucement said the H11 was 50% faster than the B11.


ie:  raw transfer rate of 14mb/sec for the H11 vs 9mb/sec for the B11

The annoucement also states "up to 43mb/sec with 3:1 Compression.

On controlled tests, we are getting just around 10mb/sec data transfer.
This is on a 9406/740.
