[X4U] Better Backup?

[Mark Des Cotes]

Hi all,

We're looking into updating/revamping our backup system. Not only the  
backup of our workstations but more importantly the backup of our  
vast archive of past jobs and customer files. Currently we copy  
completed jobs to a file server with two mirrored HDs. We then use  
Retrospect to first backup the drives and then use it again to  
archive the files (copies the files to tape then deletes them from  
the drive). We are using AIT-2 tapes as our backup media. Our AIT  
drive is getting a bit old and we would like to upgrade it before it  
fails us. I'm wondering if there's any new and better options  
available to us? Or or should we stick to AIT-2 and just purchase a  
new AIT drive?

Thanks
