YMMV, but I personally have a PC in an another building, running
backupPC and connected by WiFi.
Your own private 'cloud' would also be an option.
I use my garage, but a friendly neighbour who would reciprocate may also
be an option.
I tend to use Unison for cloning from one machine to another.

Hi all
Is DAT still a viable backup medium if you want USB and to avoid
optical disks?
I’ve got about 8Tb to backup and for various reasons don’t fancy: LTO,
BluRay, Cloud or HDD (i.e. NAS). I know DAT’s quite old (and I might
even be forced to use DAT160 because of cost) but if it’ll do the
archiving (write once read seldom) job I have in mind for 8Tb (even if
that’s a lot of tapes) I’d be happy.
Thanks
Rob
