I would say 90% of all of our restore requests occur within two weeks, =
and another 5% within one month. =20
Legal requirements and govt. regulations dictate our retention policies =
that are greater than 1 month, i.e. 3years, 7 years or infinite.
=20
Every once in a while you do get the occasional request for something =
that falls inbetween a year end long term archive and a one month =
standard retention.  Usually those are one off requests for a small set =
of personal files that someone accidently nuked.
