Back up Process

Hi! I am using Backup Exec 6.0 on my Windows 2000 server. I have 18,064,174,085 bytes of data to backup. It now takes two tapes to do the backup process. Is there anyway I can compress this information to get it on one tape? My server backups up at night and no one is there to add an additional tape when it is full. I am using a 12/24GB tape. I guess the logical answer would be to get 20/40GB tapes, right?

Thanks!

Scott

You are already getting compression if more than 12 GB fit on one tape

If your drive supports 20/40 media, then that would certainly be the easiest way to get more data one one tape.
