a 500GB HDD isn't much going by desktop equipment, if you happen to use SCSI drives, well yeah you have a very valid point.

We're obviously talking different scales, I'm talking business applications, not home. I'm considering Petabytes of data not Terrabytes (hence the reason I stated a replacement for TBU as a backup medium).
At least drives in the future may have a healthier MTBF being solid state.
When I look at my home systems, I've got ~8TB all up but files that aren't replaceable or retrievable elsewhere would fit on a single CD very easily.
