Paula,
I have but 2 words of advice for this:
NAS box.
run whatever backups to disk on the server:
rman arch, rman db, exp, expdp, hot, cold ...
compress them if you have the cpu to burn and push them up to the NAS box.
if the backup sets get to tape, great.=20
if they don't get to tape, its the SysAdmin's problem (and up the
management chain that one goes).
You have your backup sets accessible on the relatively inexpensive
serial ATA based server.
If they won't spring for that ... an external IDE drive connected by
USB is under 1 USD per gigabyte. You might need to add in a PCI-X USB
adapter to get decent performance or to support multiple devices.
I flat out do not trust network backups by sysadmins, but that's just me.
Paul
