Greetings!

Is there some one who has recommendations about the Fragment Size for Tape 
Drive Storage Units (Physical and Virtual)? With newer faster tape drives - do 
we really need to fragment the backup images? I know the benifits of 
fragmenting - to position to a specific file quickly which helps the reoveries. 
But it seems when we use fragmenting - for every fragment the tape has to 
position which stops streaming and slows down. 

Any suggestions?

Thanks
