RAID should save you if your main hard drive fails. So your site is not down when you are doing a hardware swap out. Then you have a secondary system in place for your daily/weekly/monthly.

As for myself personally, I also have back ups in my office of websites and their content. So should all else fail, I could FedEx to host/datcenter/office and have them put it on their server at the office.
Great backup plan you got there!

But doing RAID and daily/weekly, if you are sporting HUGE amounts of data?

How does that work?

Leaves me puzzled...

RAID with 20 drives would be doable, but backing that up :-(
