Hi Ara, We no longer use a tape library (we currently use off-site data transfer & disk backups) but if I remember it was at least 10x faster then what you are getting. I'm trying to think what else might help, because I know how "helpful" Symantec support tends to be. I have received different information from trainers, tech support, engineers, etc. I would check out the symantec forums for BE11, but if I think of anything else I'll let you know. -Sean Houston On Thu, Mar 6, 2008 at 12:45 PM, Ara Avvali <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote:
