I would need two portable backup hard drives (one on-site and one off-site). I estimate a cost of $375 for a SCSI controller card together with a (used) VXA tape drive. Plus the cost of tape cartridges, of course. So I'll have to see what 2 x 2.5" portable HDDs will cost. 1 TB capacity drives should be sufficient.
Portable external usb hard drives are comically cheaper if you consider price per terabyte.
