There was a recent discussion of hardware versus software compression. In general, I recommend hardware compression, unless your software can keep up with your tape drive.
Is all hardware compression compatible? Given a tape containing compressed data, can it be restored using any compatible tape from from any manufacturer? In short, is all compression equal and reversible? -- Dan Langille BSDCan - The Technical BSD Conference : http://www.bsdcan.org/ PGCon - The PostgreSQL Conference: http://www.pgcon.org/ ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Microsoft Defy all challenges.
