What is the preffered method/medium of archiving data offline for immediate onlining/mounting when necessary. CD/DVD doesn't
have the neccesary capacity since we're talking about
50gb. Also how would SQL handle/see such a medium.

Thanks."

Depends what you mean by immediate and what form the data is in.

Holdng the data in an mdf file on a disk which can be connected to the system then the database attached would probably be simplest.

DTS can be used in a similar way.
