thanks Etarip, I had looked on newegg and I'd noticed the product you linked to as something that might work. Although I don't think that backing up to USB is something that would be economical, unless you know somebody who makes a several hundred gig USB drive for cheap! =) I see your point about RAID not being backup, but I'm mainly looking for the redundancy as a form of backup in case of a hardware failure. I don't want to loose the files permanently just because the hardware fails. If I don't need the file(s) anymore, then I'm not worried about them getting deleted. I just need to make sure that some of the stuff I'm constantly working with isn't lost because of a hardware failure.
Thanks for the advice on the controlles dilbert. I'll look into them!
Thanks for the input micah. I looked at the device you mention on newegg but it got rather severe mixed reviews, so I decided to avoid it.
