I have a few servers that I manage remotely, and they all have a SCSI Raid setup on them. I have had problems before where one raid setup or hard drive in the raid goes down, and I have to send someone out to find out what the problem is, a few times now the hardware has been toast because of late notification of whats wrong. I am looking for either a piece of hardware or software that will "phone home" through almost any means and send me a message as soon as a problem is detected.

What kind of Server / Card are you using?
Almost all Dell PERC's, Compaq/HP SmartArray's will send out SNMP traps if something goes wrong.
Enable SNMP on the server, then setup a Dell IT Assistant or HP Insite Manager machine to collect the traps.

[edit]
Ohh.. hmm.. they're all remote machines? Well, the PERC's should beep like crazy and alert someone. There has to be someway to set OpenMange / ArrayManager to alert you. Do you have all the extra array management software installed?
 
Also all the Proliants I have will send a page in the event of a failure (if you have a modem in the system) check your RAID software, any decent one should let you set some kind of notification up.
