Hi,

After some testing, I decided to use taper as my backup software.

With the compress method 2 of taper, it can only reach about 6-7 Mb/min (raw 
speed) and the tape drive has to stop to wait for data. I try to change some 
parameters of the taper (in defaults.h) and it does not seem to help at all.

My Easybyte96 can sustain 10Mb/min with its acceleration card and taper can 
read the tape at almost 10Mb/min (raw).

Does anyone know methods to improve the performance? 

I am using potato: taper6.9ra and zftape4.03pre2.
