All,

I was wondering what people thought of iSCSI and FreeBSD. Is it a viable option for creating SANs?

I want to move away from tape backups, and have numerous production FreeBSD machines that I need to back up data from.

Any other ideas for a disk to disk backup solution that people have used?

You should check out rsnapshot. It does disk to disk backups either locally, or via ssh. I am using it to snapshot about 2TB of data to a 10TB (total) SAN, based on fiber channel. All FreeBSD backend, with assorted servers I'm backing up.
