LTO-5 archiving with Retrospect

Hi, I have a new LTO-5 HH drive and Retrospect.

I get the same problem on Mac and PC using different SAS cards.

When I want to archive a 360Gb folder, Retrospect starts off fine. After about 38Gb it stops and asks for another tape. I insert a new tape and it stops after about 76Gb.

I have archive disk to disk and seems fine, but tape is an issue.

So, different OS's, different cards, different Retrospect softwares (Mac/PC) all showing the same limitation.

Anyone else seeing this?

Just doing a simple folder archive with all the default setting.

Thanks

Don
