Backing up data on tapes is old thinking. Choose a buddy system in a separate location and sync the data nightly or in off hours. This process is faster, more secure and easier to recover from if something happens. Yearly or quarterly tapes backups are still and cost effective, but only data that is not expected back should be put on tape for archive.
I have implemented this at Chevron saving thousands in the pilot. 10's of millions were achievable in proposal, but I was outsourced prior to seeing the project ok'ed
