So what we are trying to avoid is always copying data from the client to the same blocks on the server's HD before copying to tape? We want to copy to random blocks on the server each time so we aren't always stuck with the same bad blocks? And you don't try to maintain a special (rdiff-backup, rsnapshot, etc) repository on tape, you just keep recording full copies and changing tapes? We can't just use fsck on the HD to check for corruption? - Grant
