We all have heard about hard drive crashes and then to trying to retrieve important data. A lot of my sites are very picture intensive and also contain mega amounts of customer data from previous online orders, email addys etc. Of course not everyone can do this because of hardware limitations but since I have two dedicated servers, I can backup one entire system and then FTP it to the other server for storage. For example: WebHostManager (C-panel) on the Chicago server is set to automatically backup all files every night at 1am and then FTP the backup copy to my New York Server. Now if chicago blows up or server dies suddenly---my data backed up daily is sitting on NY server and can be restored. Of course I back up the NY server every night also automatically and that copy is FTP'd over to Chicago to keep that data safe. Pretty neat huh?? The dedicated servers do have an option of mounting another hard drive to the box to store the daily backups, but of course that is more money and I kinda like the idea of off-site storage of sensitive back up data which I now have.
