For a machine with 750 GB x 4 SATA drives (connected to SAS backplane) = 3 TB (roughly), what would be a recommended native/compressed lto3 [half-height] capacity drive to use for backup? This is a standalone desktop.

I am considering Windows native backup, if that will work with a tape drive.

Some of what I've seen are 400 GB native / 800 GB compressed. Normally I'd think that would fill quickly, but with tape drive technology and software, another part of me thinks it may last longer than I expect. I look forward to getting educated here.

Thanks.

Scott
