As requested by a fellow on this list, here is Steve's reply

Just a small point, if you are securing systems over a slow network,

then the DLT 7000 may be un-suitable as it attempts to speed up writes

by writing zeros whenever its throughput drops below a certain

threshold, this is fine for fast streams but slow streams have an

problem of only being able to recover at write speeds which means

skipping over the zeros thus slowing down recovers.

Hope that helps.
