Well a local device will usually be faster than a remote device.
Ntbackup, with the registry tweaks, gives me about 1 GB per minute locally. But I dont have a dat-72 to compare to. My home GB LAN with a cheap crappy switch copies about 50 MB/min. So Im thinking that two hours seems more likely than 9 hours. Regards, Michael B.
