like the title says im looking for a stand alone solution to backup my company data (2 computers with a 60GB drive each, though much less actually used) at my office to an offsite backup located at my home. i would like raid1 redundancy, raid 5 would be cooler but starts to cost a lot more

im looking at the
Netgear SC101
Storage Central

but im unaware if it is accessable over a WAN such as the internet
both locations have cable modems and would be always on

thoughts?
 
Setup a VPN, however don't expect much from a cable modem's upload. How much data do you expect to backup and how often?
 
I've got my eye on one of these right now:

Supports anonymous FTP, as well as specified accounts I'm sure.

However, if you're serious about these backups, I wouldn't settle for anything less than FTP over some kind of VPN connection, or use something that combines both, like Secure FTP, or FTP over SSL. Alternatively FTP'ing over a permanent IPSEC tunnel would be your best option.
 
first time full hdd ghost backup afterwards just an ammendment of all changes
(new email, adjusted databases etc) not a tonne a couple hundred megs max i would imagine
cable modem UL max is 64kB/s so overnight no worries
