It seems that you mix parameters of all three different LTO
generations - which of them do you have really?

                                LTO1    LTO2    LTO3
Uncompressed capacity (GB)      100     200     400
Compressed 2:1 capacity (GB)    200     400     800
Native speed (MB/s)             15      30      80

Note that speed may somewhat vary among there LTO manufacturers.

It is really not too bad. My rate is up to 22 MB/s, but it is with LTO3
and data spooling (which is very good idea for all, who want not to reduce
life of their tape devices).
