External Backup solution

Hi all

I need to repalce a DDS4 tape drive as a backup solution for a file server. Currently the server has 60 GB of data and will continues to grow. It has an Ultra 160 SCSI port. The device must be external.

I am looking for some economical / reliable ideas.

Thanks

Would a simple external USB 2.0/Firewire drive enclosure do the trick? Or do you need something more?
