If you don't have a second copy of your data, you are really skating on thin ice!  RAID is not backup, it's just hardware redundancy.

A couple of years back some wag here christened me "Captain Backup" because of my constant harping on the need for backup - I think it's time for me to pass the torch on. 

gunrunnerjohn - keep up the good work.

I am a moderator and contributor to several forums, and if I had a nickel for every time someone shows up and wants to recover data after the fact, I'd be rich. 

For a year or so, my little backup ditty was my signature line, I hoped it would sink in, but the incidents seemed to remain constant.    I guess lessons learned the hard way are the ones that sink in.
