AFAIK, DDS-3 does hardware compression. Therefore, the "COMPRESS=HIGH",
which enables the most CPU-intensive software compression, is not useful.
Since you're at tape 5 of 7, you might as well let your backup run to
completion. But next time, try without the software compression. I'm
interested in the result.
Good luck from Old Europe,
