Yeah,

At my last job we had a Cybernetics AIT-3 dual drive that worked like that.  
Made two copies at one time.

One copy was sent offsite with Iron Mountain, the other was kept on site in a 
Schwab Media Safe.

AFAIK, every 3rd party tape device offers a model with similar capabilities.  I 
highly recommend 3rd party tape for just that reason.  Simply so much more 
capabilities than with IBM tape.

At my current employer, we've got an old 3570 dual library.  So I have to use 
DUPTAP to create copies of the Save 21 tapes.


HTH,
