LOL. Now that's funny
I think we need to know more about what your data is composed of.
49GB is a lot of stuff to back up daily. Is most of it Outlook/Exchange mail files? If so, one quick way to cut the size down is getting mail policy tools that purge or back up mail and forces users to keep their mail files smaller.
I'm assuming your arrest DB/app is no in Outlook/Exchange (or I hope it's not).
Simplest thing to do is seriously reconsider incrementals. Most people don't do full backups every day. It's usually weekly fulls and daily incrementals w/ rotating tapes in/out to a backup location.
Nowadays, the thing most people do is to use a network storage devices to do backups to. It'll go faster, but the main issue is not being able to move it offsite easily (you can get two and swap them weekly though).
It'd help if we knew what your budget is as well...
