[Veritas-bu] DataDomain ddr460 restorer storage unit setup practices

So the minimum speed of a TS1120 is 35 MB/s, not 40. My statement remains the same. Take 35 MB/s, multiply it times your compression ratio, and you've got the minimum speed of a TS1120. Most people get about 1.5:1, so that makes it a 52.5 MB/s minimum speed drive. You also said: >It's true that
