OT: tape backup



Based on my recent experiences, I want a more robust backup solution.  I
am looking to aquire a tape drive.  As this is not being payed for by a
buisness I need a cost effective solution.  I prefer SCSI (I am using the
Qlogic isp1020 as reported by /proc/scsi).  Any suggestions or ideas?
What is the best drive for the money?  I will be backing up FAT32, EXT2,
Reiserfs, UFS, HPFS, (and maybe other) filesystems.  I would like to
manage it all on my alpha, although I can put it in a x86 box that I have
if necessary (cost/performance driven, etc.).  My apologies for the two OT
posts in one weekend.  Thanks for your help.
James
