Paul The post was talking about backups of the IS / BLB of mailboxes. Restore sounds ok for that size! Is this over fibre (Media) or Network (LAN client)

The performance you get for the IS is very good - BLB does not surprise me too much and I am not a fan of BLB at all.

Each storage group has 2 stores. Does anyone have any suggestions on how I can use this to improve my mailbox backup performance? An Information store backup of about 95GB takes about 45 minutes. The mailbox backups take about 20-30 hours. Because of that I only do a mailbox backup once a month. I was thinking about trying concurrent backups ... but the Exchange administrator does not think we'll get any better throughput but what if I backup up one store every weekend? How would I address that store in the policy? I use 5.1 MP4 and currently the Mailbox backup policy Directive set is set to MS_Exchange_2000 and the Pathname or directive is Microsoft Exchange Mailboxes:\.
