Hello, I need your opinion on the my following backup solution.

2 HDD/server with RAID1.
All files backed up onto a offline server daily
All data backed up onto CDs monthly.

Thanks...

Sure!

Another easy sollution is to write a script that copies all site contents daily to another place on the disk.

That way, the data is kept safe if somebody uploads/overwrites data, and that backup costs nothing... (except you need to have some extra drivespace)

If the disk A fails,
the previous backup is also saved on the second disk (RAID1)
