Re: Speed on 3581 LTO-2 Tape Drive

Hello All, 

We are starting to use a 3581 LTO-2 tape drive to back up 100gb of image 
files (3.7 million 50-60kb images) for a customer and we have noticed that 
this process takes about 8-9 hours. Backing up a small number of large 
files is much faster.

Does anyone here know if there is a way to tune the 3581 so that it will 
stream even when backing up large amounts of small files ?

Any input is appreciated. 

Regards,
Richard Schoen
