200GB in 9 hours comes out to 6MB/sec. That's not particularly bad for a 10/100Mb network, but not particularly good. If you're running Exchange 2003, review the TSM for Mail (Exchange) manual. There may be a way to multithread the backup if Exchange's data is broken up into storage groups. -- Mark Stapleton ([EMAIL PROTECTED]) Berbee Information Networks Office 262.521.5627
