    Only add multiple backup destinations if you have multiple separate IO paths (so 32 cores, 32 destinations on 1 LUN isn't a good idea. 32 cores, 32 destinations across 16-32 LUNs or 32 cores, 16 destinations across 16 LUNs may work)

    also, the multiple drives should have the same I\O capability\performance 😉

    That should fall into the category of 'common sense'.... not that common sense is all that common. 🙂
