So far most of the suggestions have been for SCSI tape solutions or
CDR. I've got a server here with an enormous disk[1] that I want to
use for backing up the other servers nightly. A tape dump will be made
from this about once a week, but we've got an awful lot of data, and I
can't afford a tape changer.... 

Any suggestions?

Cheers,

Simon
