I want to build a failsafe server. I plan to use ABIT or IWILL motherboards with built-in IDE RAID. The system will have 3 exact hard drives. 2 of the hard drives will be exact mirror of each other. The third one will be a back up drive using Ghost backing up nightly. Has anyone built silmilar system or have better ideas, inputs, please posts. Thanks.

Failsafe server configuration strictly depends on requirements. There can be a lot of solutions:
RAID5
Ghost Image from the server
Cluster
Second (unplugged from the network) server with the same config.
...
All depends on requirements.
