Got my backup drive

[kaiweiler]

Alright so I'm running 2x250gb in raid-0 and finally got in my 750gb for extra storage and backup.
I'm wondering what the best way to backup my data on the raid array onto the storage drive would be. I've never done it before.
Is a 3rd party app the best to maybe create an image of the array and save it onto the storage drive?
How do you guys do it?

i am going to be doing the same thing soon for my 300GB raid0, what i plan to do is just format the extra drive and use it as a storage drive and use a program to image my raid0 and keep it on the storage drive,

you may want to look into drive image xml http://www.runtime.org/dixml.htm

Yeah I went with Acronis, it seems great so far. I have set a schedule for backups, and you can choose various types such as a full back up, incremental backup, or there's another option as well.
Seems like a great program so far!
