Looking for Tape Backup

We are looking around for some sort of mass
storage backup... something quick, and efficient.

We are thinking about getting a tape drive.  The 
problem is that we have about a dozen or so [pxa]t's
and we would like to have a tape drive that we could
move around easily.  This means not having to pop
the top off everytime you wanted to backup a different
machine... the idea being that if you had such a portable
tape, you could do daily backups pretty painlessly.

Is there any such beast?  Any pointers to someone who might
know?

			Thanks in Advance
