My daily backups go to one AIT-1 tape, 35 Gbyte capacity and it
contains 131 DLE's at the moment.
I probably should have included another "I think" on that last sentence :))
But I'll chance it.
I agree witht his. I mean, I believe it has zero impact.
(Yes, but there are other tapes where the amount is significant.
But using those older tapes with a few hundred meg capacity on current
disks seems ridiculous.)
