Hello all. I'm looking for a backup solution that can handle as much as 120G (compressed) per tape. I was pretty excited about OnStream's systems, except that they don't seem to be supported by FreeBSD. Is anyone out there using one of these reliably? The client is currently using DAT tapes, but they've got over 50G worth of data to back up, and it doesn't seem to compress any smaller than 40G. (this is a design firm, a lot of their files are HUGE, photo-quality jpegs) With the DATs, it takes all day of swapping tapes to get a backup. We're looking at adding another 74G of storage to the main fileserver, and I don't want to upgrade their backup system to something that will be overwhelmed in 6 months. Any suggestions? -- Bill Moran Potential Technologies http://www.potentialtech.com To Unsubscribe: send mail to majordomo@FreeBSD.org with "unsubscribe freebsd-questions" in the body of the message
