At my new place, we use hard disk backups. I'm not sure if they're firewire or what, but they're in removable caddies, and someone just takes them home for safe-keeping.


Unbelievably hard drives are very nearly as cheap as DLT tapes. From www.scan.co.uk :

160GB DLT tape is £33.71
160GB ATA-100 disk is £48.55

and guess which one will last longer ?

It makes you wonder why anyone still uses tapes (ok, I guess tapes are more portable).
