What kind of write speeds is everyone getting?

We're getting good data quantity, but the speed is "stuck" at
30MB/s...LTO2 speed

7.2.1 - solaris 9 / LTO-3 no probs for almost a year now...   And I was
also kind of puzzled when the release notes for 7.3.2 say they've added
LTO-3 support..

The release notes for 7.2.2 (page 22) indicate that support for LTO-3
was added in 7.2.1.  We haven't noticed any problems with LTO-3 under
7.2.2, so I would be very interested to know why it's mandatory to
upgrade.  If there's something horribly broken with LTO-3 drive support
in 7.2.1 and 7.2.2, that's the kind of thing EMC should be notifying its
customers about.
