But that is just the read speed of the hard drives yeah? If the data
stream is compressed 2:1 the tape only writes then at 50-52.5 MiB/s.
I recall watching catalog backups write to tape and I would see the disk
reading at 100-120 MiB/s, was the LTO-2 tape that is was backing the
catalog up to writing that fast? No, compression was being used.
