Slooooooooooooow compaq AIT 3 ait3
I ran the L&TT to get this info. Because it has compaq firmware, is it absolutely not going to run on any other brand computer?
I am open to any ideas because i have tried just about everything i can think of. Or maybe i bought a busted drive???
I think 1 solution is to replace the board of the tape drive. Does anyone know of a company that sells internal components for an ait3??
TIA.

On this page you can find the info what kind of speed to expect from your ait drive. http://h18006.www1.hp.com/storage/tapedrivematrix.html
Maybe you should check if the computer you have it connected to supplies enough data for the drive to stream properly, by using this little utillity that measures if the system supplies the data quick enough. Use the full (file to file bu)test and also the sequential (image) test options to compare for poss speed issues due to small files and fragmentation.

and maybe read some of info on this url:
http://www.hp.com/cposupport/information_storage/support_doc/lpg50460.html
if the issue is not data being given to the drive too slow ...... it is not poss to get internal parts for your drv but if your drv shows to be defect and is in warranty - you shoud be able to exchange it after talking to the hw support people.

Generate a 10GB file and dd it to the drive using a variety of different blocksizes and check the MB/sec that you're getting under each of these. Then go generate a million 1kb files (with maybe 10,000 per directory) and see how long it takes to back those up using different blocksizes. Then take a look at the data you're backing up and figure out what's the most appropriate.
