one of them even work with a single 8mm tape (10-15 GB

I'm using replica on a HP T20, tehats good enough for my needs. Then

I don't have 100gb of disk unless I total ALL the clients together.
I think it's a case of storage out srtipping the 32bit cpus and storage
that was
only 25gb a year ago and now it's 75gb. I havent a clue how those guys
with their
terabyte fields of disks (a table full) do it.

Folks with big ISP's/search engines tend to have between 750 GB and 1.5 TB
of storage, depending on their size. Numerous corporate enterprises around
here are near the TB range right now. I heard on the radio about one new
internet startup that brought up 775 GB of RAID their first day.
It used to be that one could do backups on a home-based system. However,
softare to handle the backups just doesn't seem to be there. It's not
complicated, so one could, I suppose, roll-yer-own.
