Yes, SDLT has the capacity to hold all your data on one tape. (SDLT600 will hold 300 GB native)
if it won't fit in the same slot in the server you can connect using an external SCSI port
You can definitely use eEternal Hard drives, but will probably bottleneck at the USB port. IIRC max throughput for USB 2.0 is only 480 mbps or 60 MB/sec or 360 MB/min
if you decide to go to external HDs, remember that each physical drive must be connected to the same drive letter each time that it is mounted
Just on GP, I'd also get the free upgrade to v9.1
