---- Simple backup solution

In reading everything, it seems that it would be best to have 2 external drives hooked up to the main computer. Then do a daily backup to Drive 1, and keep Drive 2 offsite. Then switch everyweek.

Also, it is best to do a complete backup of the drive image, rather than backup selected files. (using norton ghost or what other options?)

I currently use an online backup service for selected files, but would like to add my own backup as a secondary backup as well. Seems like Raid 1 is not foolproof as a malfunction can damage both disks.
