Well, you just learned that DLT VS is not for intensive use...
Basicall, the VS line of products from Quantum is the cheap and much
less reliable simplified and slower version of the older drives :-)
i could use suggestions for hardware to use ... preferably no more
tapes ^^
You want tapes, believe me...
i need to be able to take one backup each week offsite .. so it should
be at least a combination including something i can take with me :-)
my thoughts tend to multiple file storages combined with a USB-HD for
offsite storage, but i'd prefer some more professional version
External hard disk drives are much less robust than a tape.

oh .. i forgot ...
full backup is currently 25 GB, media should support at least 40 GB of
uncompressed data, options for incremental backups are limited since the
data change is pretty high ...
Well, I'd suggest either DLT-8000 or LTO drives. And I can support Alans
statement that you should buy with some sort of improved warranty and
on-site service, or buy from someone like me :-) who actually tests the
equipment before it's delivered to you - tape and disk drives are really
not meant for the handling they get when sent as usual, i.e. careless
packaged and roughly handled.
