I haven't tried it for disk, as I am backing up to tape and am happy about it. I mentioned that when I tested this param on NT/EDM, I experienced marked improvements by setting this value from the default of 64k up to 2M. There was no appreciable difference setting the parameter higher.

Tom,
Does this only work for tape?
