Let amanda do it in the middle of the night Fons. I've been using it, using virtual tapes on a terrabyte hard drive now, but with real tape since about 1999. Real tape is a maintenance headache, if you have smartctl watching the drives, they'll warn you well enough in advance that you can replace the drive ahead of a total failure. Made use of that once since I moved it to vtapes, about 7 years back. It works over the network, so my milling machine and lathe control boxes are backed up nightly too.
