I think ill try the LSI adapter, as your setup seems very similar. Just out of curiosity what sort of backup speeds do you get to a single LTO3 drive?. I seem to struggle to get anything above 60-70MB/s.
Yeah, 70MB/s is about my top speed as well (both via 'tar -b 4096' and amanda with a 2MB blocksize). Given that the drives are rated at 80MB/s, I'm not too unhappy with that.
Apologies for hijacking the thread, but I'm seeing speeds of only around 30MB/s with an LTO3 library connected via 2Gb fibre channel, both with tar and with Bacula.
Would you know how to go about investigating this?
