	Dear all,

	  I'm now planning to purchase Mammoth Tape Library for my system.
	I have borrowed a Mammoth Tape drive for evaluation. From
	the technical report from Exabyte, it was said that using
	Ultra 2 + Mammoth Tape drive can reach about 2.6MB/sec averagely.
	However my evaluation shows that it only 0.8xMB/sec. I'm using
	the Solstice Backup 5.1 software. I'm using Solaris 2.6 OS. The
	kernal of 2.6 shows that it should support Mammoth Tape Drive.
	Why my performance is stil so slow? Any comments and suggestion?

	Thanks

	Stanley,
	University of Macau
