You really do get the speed they claim. The only bug I've found in the software is that if you try to restore individual files and directories (rather than a full partition), and the directory isn't at the root, the part of the path that wasn't selected isn't restored. i.e. if I have \a\b\c\d and \a\b\c\e on a tape, and try to restore just \c, \c\d and \c\e are restored at the root instead of the correct \a\b\c\d and \a\b\c\e. dgc
