LOL...
Wow, just wow.
So I'm going to go with a G/F/S system. Although I'm thinking G/F only because no need for a third disk. G is going to be a USB 500 GB and F is going to be a network drive if I can find one, and then hopefully I can set up a script to rsync the drives on my home network or something...
And, yes, as many people had pointed out I was looking at RAID not for speed or high end server room needs but because I want my data to be safe. I figured RAID would be easiest to do this because if one drive died I could just pull it and replace it and have it mirror, but people have brought up good points -- especially about locational hazards.
Anyone know of a good online backup service that I could get to mirror my 500GB for cheap?
And as for Windows / Mac that is a problem -- saving for a new Mac but currently one a windows box...
