So i have been playing around with WHS and i am really liking the backup and restore feature. it seems to work rather well. My plan is to run a WHS in my current test box in my home network. But i have heard that there is no option to backup the server it self and i was wondering. What if you had 2 home servers. and they backed each other up. Would that solve that issue. For those interested here is my current WHS setup.
Intel Atom 330
Intel ITX Mobo
1GB G.skill PC-6400 DDR2
320GB Seagate 7200.11
30GB WD EIDE
20GB WD EIDE
Norco RPC-230 2U Chassis
Corsair CX400
I am planning on installing 4x 1TB of WD Black Editions. so i can have 2 TB of replicated drive space. I am also planning on still having my other raid nas system up and running but i am hesitant on using WHS due to the lack of support for RAID arrays. I am have been playing with windows storage server 2k8 and seem to like it quite a bit. I have used linux based nas operating systems and have found their performance to not be very good.
