You're most welcome!
If this is your primary business, and the UK has the same sort of tax
laws as Her Majesty's Canadian Dominions, you might-maybe be able to
claim backup hardware versus taxes. If so, looking at single external
enclosure tape drives (LTO-3 or LTO-4) and sticking the tapes in a
safety deposit box, preferably one physically located in a region of low
flood risk and high tectonic stability. ("Up in the crags of Wales"
comes to mind somehow....)
Tape is dog slow and kinda tedious, but the monthly backup of the stuff
you don't want to lose does rather improve one's odds of still having it
ten years from now.
