CentOS Server Backup Options

it has great specs. Each cartridge holds 160gb (non-compressed) and the
drive costs about $420 but seems that with each removable cartridge costing
$128, we may be limited to how many cartridges we could have, thus perhaps
not retaining backup instances as long as I like.
I asked about a HP DAT160 tape drive. Each tape holds 160gb
(non-compressed) and the drive costs about $730, and each tape only costs
about $24, so it would be economical to have lots of backup instances saved
for a long period of time.
I have been using tape and the backup rotation scheme mentioned above for
over 20 year...
