Do you have any plans to support deduplication and / or compression with your virtual tapes? StarWind has dedupe in disks?

Actually deduplicating the data that is on StarWind VTl drive is possible.
StarWind VTL drive runs on top of the Windows, thus it is possible to enable MS Deduplication on the partition where VTL files reside, thus all the backups will be compressed.
