We're considering a backup solution for our small business network, and we're looking into many solutions (tape backup, external hard drives, Network Attached Storage). I'm leaning toward using NAS with a program such as Norton Ghost due to cost. Speed is not an issue, but reliability is. Any considerations as to why we should buy a $4500 tape backup with autoloader as opposed to, say, a couple of 500GB/1TB NAS drives which can be rotated offsite for about 1/5 the cost? We've just never had a backup solution here, and I'm new to all of this, and need advice. Thanks.
