Some vendors boost their specs. Make sure you have a large database to compare with others. Tape compress very well too. They also have encryption capability for some. Add cost for backup time. Disk backup and cloning tape are different on that aspect. VTL is another area. I recently used to work with a TCO model tool that graphs and specs most of what you are doing. Servers, disk and tape included. Beware of disk deduplication. Some vendors boost their specs. Make sure you have a large database to compare with others.
