Trent for this scenario backuppc is what you want.

For about 1-2K acronis true image enterprise server does what you want
and more - live imaging to central server, without

I've just been involved in a network project that's considered backups
around the 300GB mark. In the end we decided it was too expensive to setup
and run, and led us to review exactly what data we need to back up. This is
the smartest thing to do in any backup situation, given the ratio of

I installed a hardware raid some time ago for backup/security. One of the
disks became corrupted and the other dutifully mirrored the corruption.
I'm not a geek, so I questioned the manufacturer of the raid card and they
simply told me that raid copied whatever was there! Huh?

Does anyone have any comment about this?
Sounds spot on.
You have raid in case your hardware fails - it didn't fail and raid
should allow you to recover/carry on/?
You have backups in case you loose your data or it becomes corrupted.
These are two independent things.

Try the archives for a few discussions on backing up.
Basically;
a) what is the purpose
b) when will you need to read the backup
c) how fast will recover need to be.
d) is it
Don't know about 1Tb on a *single* tape, but you could look at the IBM
LTO tape drives...
The one I used to use had a 7 tape auto-changer, with 100Gb per tape -
