Bo I suggest you provide a few more details about the data and you backup environment. For example; what is this data, how frequently will it be accessed on average, what is its total space requirements, what is the source stored on? Type of backup storage; tape, disk, cloud? (specifics) Bandwidth/network speed between data and target backup server?
