[AccessD] WHS and backups

Oh man oh man.  Before anyone rushes out to implement WHS as a backup
solution you need to know that it has a glaring weakness, the backup stuff
is not duplicated, nor can you force it to duplicate.  Thus backups will be
trashed (or may be) if a disk fails.  I have to say I LOVE what WHS is doing
here but you need to be aware of this issue.  

My intention is to soldier on but I will be implementing a raid solution in
order to prevent disk failures from impacting the solution.  It appears that
WHS has some pretty cool technologies and it claims to allow access to
daily, weekly and monthly backups back as far as 10 years.  IF you have a
raid solution you win, else you lose BIG-TIME if you have a hard disk
failure.


Sigh.
