Well, for those requirements you better go with third-mirror / split-mirror type of technologies. I wouldn't bet on snapshots in this case (or maybe it's just wording and that what you meant). Recently, we've implemented EMC BCV backups of couple 1 TB databases and they work like a charm - 4 times a day having a backup - dream of any DBA! :) Plus daily off-host backups to tape.
