Hi Joe,
Every vendor's primary target for deduplication is disk. When you duplicate this dedupe folder to tape it rehydrates the data to the original size.
You can run the BE dedupe calculator to give you an idea on how much space you'd need to cater for, both to hold the primary site dedupe data and the site dedupe data.

You should also check out the assessment tool:

What you are looking at is BE's optimized deduplication for the site servers, so check the 3 TNs below for more information:

Doesn't appear to be, no. So you would then be stuck with the dedupe calculator which will give you a rough estimation of what you require.
Thanks!

Mmm...not too sure on this 1. You won't need as much disk space as your current environment, and it depends on how much you can upgrade your servers with extra HDDs by.
