Do a couple of disaster recovery drills, and then you'll know how long it takes to recover servers in your environment. Hardware, software, configuration, and operator skills are going to vary from shop to shop, and so recovery times are going to vary as well.

Could we say that if the backup is more than 5 hours, it could make things more difficult for the restore (downtime). Example you restore during 7 hours to see that something went wrong. You lost 7 hours. I never had to do a disaster recovery yet, most of the time, does it take the same time approx as the backup time to restore?
