[cobalt-users] Best data backup method for RAQ2 ?



Hi Folks,

I've had two RAQ2 hard drives crash on me since first getting my server in January. As a result of the loss of data/time/money, I am looking into ways in which I can have my RAQ2 hard drive backed up on a regular basis.

I am told mirroring drives in not possible... Can anyone recommend a really good (time/cost effective) back up solution? I still somewhat new to server admin and am not yet comfortable performing complicated tasks in UNIX (simple stuff I am ok with).

I've heard the name "Legato" brought up, but after visiting their site, I have no idea exactly what their software does, how much it costs, and exactly which package I might need...if I need something like that at all.

So, if any of you have advice and information as to how I can make reliable/complete backups of my drive, it would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks so much!

Sincerely,
