How about our reasons for doing this:
1) We need speedy restores, thus we have a 1T RAID5 array and backup
   to disk devices there.
2) We _must_ have offsite backups.  The RAID5 array is a bit heavy
   to carry around ... plus it can only be 1 place at a time.

Our desired solution is to back up to tape and disk simultaneously.
Thus we can take the tapes offsite, while still having fast, local
backups on the RAID5.

I expect we're not the only people with such requirements.
