We currently have an implementation with 1 master and 3 media servers.  2 media 
servers only do disk 2 disk using media server deduplication, and all images 
are stored in a JBOD - There's then a duplication job that sends the images to 
the 3rd media server and it's own JBOD.  Servers are running windows 2008 R2, 
and the JBODS are presented as "E:\PureDisk" - Each media server has it's own 
exclusive partition.

We configure the media servers so each would back up to the other one.

We had someone set this up and initially they just set to backup only drive C:. 
 However, another consultant that 'fixed' several mistakes made by the first 
one, changed so E:\Puredisk was backed up.  A third one that 'actually' fixed 
the mess the second one did (in attempt to fix this), excluded E:\Puredisk\data.

We recently upgraded to 7.5.0.4 and notice a big increase in time it takes to 
backup the media servers.  So, should we be backing up this partition at all?  
The E:\PureDisk\databases seem to be pretty big.  

Thanks in advance...


Please no need to lecture - we know we got screwed time and time again...
