That’s why we've been using Data Domain for over 2 years and couldn't be happier with the product.
I have to confess to not knowing a huge amount about Quantum but reading some of the earlier replies, I wonder why anyone would replace tape with a disk based storage unit, only to configure that DSU to act just like a bunch of tape drives. The NFS / CIFS options from DD work very well for our mixed environment (Solaris and Windows) backing up Exchange, Oracle, SQL etc... Anyways.. perhaps my stock comment wasn't too helpful but I can say that we haven't regretted our data domain purchase once in over 2 years.
