I got an HP surestore DAT 4mm drive for not all that much a few years ago.

Personally, it depends on how much backups you're planning on doing, but 
usually SCSI turns out to be cheaper in the long run. The Travan tapes tend 
to be rather expensive. On the other hand, one can get the 4mm tapes for 
about 5-6 dollars a piece.
