Personally I have two file servers at home (I work from home) on seperate UPS's. I also have the critical data on a remote server and I burn DVD's/CD's which I place in my safety deposit box. If my house burns down, or the server colo burns down I'm not utterly f**ked.
Kurt, You could also get DSL or Cable on, say your parents, inlaw's, brothers, sister's house and have your servers Rsync to a server at that location. That gives them fast internet access, maybe split the cost(?) and you have another off site system... _______________________________________ D-Link wireless with 4 port wired... Gave them wireless and wired... Just put the server and router somewhere no kids will touch it... I have seen people screw a cheap 1u box to the (finished) basement ceiling. This is what he did: UPS - $50 Router - $10 1u box - $200 Mo-board - $150(?) 250 gig - $120 512 Ram - $100(?) DSL $360 _______ $990/first year - good night sleep Personally, I would have gone with a used box... -- Thanks, George Suppose you were an idiot and suppose you were a member of Congress.
