I have heard that the 6250's don't work all that well.  Do they really
buy you that much more speed?  Do they break down very often?  How many
times faster whould you guess your backups get done?

Our 6250 drive (Kennedy 9400) has worked out quite well for us.  I don't
believe there is a large time savings, because the drive doesn't have
any influance on the time it takes to traverse the filesystem.  We've had
little problem with reliability.  One thing that did make a noticeable
speedup in the filesave time was switching the node the drive was attached
to from a DSP-80 to a DSP-90.
