We have a seven week rotation for our tapes with end of month tapes being
removed from the rotation.  Even with that there are times we wished we had
a longer rotation. 

By the way, 400 gigabytes on one cartridge?  Wow.  We could probably use one
tape to backup all of our systems for three nights.

I know the "historic" and auditor approved standard for daily tape backup
rotation has been 21 days. We just got the 3581-H23 in and it can go 400GB
compressed on a single cartridge. This compares to the 7GB on the 9427 8mm
drive we currently have. The cartridges also go for around $111.00 so I am
being asked to ascertain we need 21 days, and would 14 be OK, etc.

What is everyone else doing ?
