Off-site storage of the backups is definitely the right thing to do.
24 LTO3 tapes will easily fit in a holdall, so i can take one set of tapes home with me, and leave one set in the loader. Change them weekly, and jobs done.

As for the video - all my video is on the raids in full uncompressed 10bit, so its all backed up onto the tapes anyway. If the building should burn down, i won't have the digibetas, but i'll still have the media on the data tapes.

I misread Davids note earlier and thought he wrote "Dark Star" test!! My mind immediately thought of the "intelligent bomb"that wants to destroy everything in the film of the same name...not the kind of test i want to do with my backups!!
