I was using Travan 10/20 cartridges, Seagate internal drives, and Backup
Exec to back up a couple of servers.  One of the Seagates died.

I replaced _both_ internals with an external USB attached 80gb disk drive,
less than $100.  Now backup both servers to that external drive in separate
Backup-to-Disk folders.  Don't use tapes for those servers at all anymore.

Worked so well we bought a 2nd one and alternate weeks.  Faster than tape
and less cost.  And one is always in the safe.
