DAT160 USB External not performing ANY hardware compression
HP Storage works library and tape tools shows that compression is working at over 2:1 but there is no compression with real backups! I have checked firmware and drivers are all the latest.
Please can someone help?

Re: DAT160 USB External not performing ANY hardware compression
I will try to enable hardware compression using the HP libarary and tape tool's tomorrow, but to be honest it shows as being enabled eveywhere I look, it just does not actually do the compression. It does backup 80Gb onto a tape but not any more.
Regards

Re: DAT160 USB External not performing ANY hardware compression
Many backup programs disable compression on the drives as soon as the service starts.

Re: DAT160 USB External not performing ANY hardware compression
I did not ever manage to get to the bottom of it. I had various support calls out with HP and with Symantec and neither were able to get to the bottom of it. HP shipped me two replacement drives but the result was the same. I can't see how the problem can be with Backup exec if itâ s also a problem with NT backup.
