First, thanks for all the helpful responses I received yesterday regarding accessing a tape. I was able to get the backup I needed to restore. I do (of course) have another question. I have a Compaq (or is it Quantum or Tandem) DLT7000 35/70 drive. According to spec sheets I've seen it is suppose to be capable of backing up 35 G an hour using the 2:1 compression. Well, I only seem to get like 45 G on a tape and it takes like 8 hours to backup 84 G. It's a local drive so I'm think there must be a driver update or am I dreaming. TIA Patrick
