I have an LTO2 tape that is used only for a specific dataset that is very compressible. Currently I it has 3TB on a single LTO2 tape. *list media pool=LTO2-Calculated-Data +---------+------------+-----------+---------+-------------------+----------+--------------+---------+------+-----------+-----------+---------------------+ | mediaid | volumename | volstatus | enabled | volbytes | volfiles | volretention | recycle | slot | inchanger | mediatype | lastwritten | +---------+------------+-----------+---------+-------------------+----------+--------------+---------+------+-----------+-----------+---------------------+ | 212 | A00053 | Append | 1 | 3,006,834,453,504 | 3,025 | 31,536,000 | 1 | 14 | 1 | LTO-2 | 2013-05-03 09:59:36 | +---------+------------+-----------+---------+-------------------+----------+--------------+---------+------+-----------+-----------+---------------------+ With that said outside of the few edge cases most of my 180 LTO2 tapes fit around 300 GB which is less than the claim of 400GB.
