Rather than cold backups, consider backing up your databases to disk using
Transact-SQL BACKUP DATABASE and then archiving the disk backup files to
tape using your backup software. This allows you to perform backups while
the databases are online and uses less tape storage. Many backup vendors
also provide a specialized backup agent for SQL Server that allows you to
backup SQL Server databases online.
In any case, be sure to thoroughly test your recovery procedure.
