Plus, what about offsite backup? We have about 1.5TB, here - that's ten economical, six huge, hard discs per "tape set". We'd have to have some way of manipulating them all fairly easily. I need to think about this.
Lateral thought: Maybe the cheapest "magazine" for a set of discs is an actual computer? Having your offsite backup being a complete bootable PC with 1000Base-TX would be... amusing.
