I think you mentioned in a previous post that writing a local, multi GB file to the drive went at full speed, so your drive is setup OK. Given it appears that the network is the bottleneck, you will need to copy all backup data to the machine local to the drive and then backup to tape. The setup in use here rsyncs remote machines to a fast local RAID5 and then bacula is used to tape from there.
