hey gunrunnerjohn,

i agree with you 100% that raid is not a backup but what happens if you have a raid 1 setup and it had a network recycle bin, would you consider the raid 1 solution a backup then?

i know the 323 doesn't have a recycle bin, i am just asking ...

I agree with you gunrunnerjohn - I think that I was asleep when I read the OP.  :)

It's still not a backup.  If an errant program or rogue application can lose all the data, that's not really a backup.

Hey, it's your data, so I don't presume to tell you how to protect it.  You're just receiving my opinion of using RAID of any level as a backup. :)
