We use LTO-1 for our offsite tapes -- it runs to about 100 to 140 tapes, depending on time of year and how aggressively I run one of the reclaims. And four TSM database backups, just to be on the safe side (I run two, back to back, to go off-site each day).
Back when we used DLT-IV tapes (DLT-7000 drives) 'everything' was about 200 to 250 tapes. We keep our 'offsite' storage at our corporate hanger at the local airport, and get to use the corporate bird to fly to our hotsite. If we had to fly commercial, we'd probably ship the tapes out via one of the overnight outfits.
