If you want to maximize backup storage capacity, select the Enable
Tape Compression check box (for optimal backup performance, leave
the check box cleared).

If you want to specify a maximum size for the tape, enter the size in the
Dynamic Tape Max Size box.
The default is 0, which allows the appliance to use the available space on
a volume, up to 2198 GB.
Note:
If you decide to change the maximum size at a later date, be
aware that you can only increase the size; you cannot reduce it. To use
a device with a smaller maximum size, you must either delete this
device and re-create it using the desired size, or create an additional
device that uses the desired size.
Select a device.
