If you're concerned about storage space, have a look at Linear Tape Open, or 
LTO.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Linear_Tape-Open

An LTO-4 tape holds 800 gigabytes UNCOMPRESSED. Some places list LTO-4 as 
1.6TB, but that's compressed. LTO-5 will soon bring 1.6TB uncompressed. :)

The tapes are inexpensive, starting at about $60 USD. However the drives are 
still pretty expensive. They start at about $2,000 USD and go up, way up, in 
price.

Not too bad for a business or small studio, but a large chunk of change for an 
individual or sole proprietorship business.

I'd dearly love to see an affordable LTO-4 drive. I have around 750GB total 
storage on one PC. Being able to back it all up onto ONE piece of media, 
without compression... that would be very nice. I haven't been able to do that 
since one PC I had with Windows 95 and some extended length QIC tape, with 
compression.
