Jeremy,

[JeremyG] "At lunch or at the end of the day or whenever is most convenient, transfer the contents of the P2 store to the cheap SATA 2 disk RAID that is striped RAID 1. This will essentially write two copies of the p2 files to two drives at the same time."

This is something I've been thinking of myself. I'm pretty sure it would work. A friend of mine had an XP computer go down with a raid 1 Sata in it. He pulled one of the drives out and put it in another computer and found that he could access the drive just fine. This is the only kind of redundant hard drive backup that some clients are gonna accept, where you give them one and hold on to the other until the client has done whatever backup they will do. It's a little more expensive than tape initially but can be used over and over once the workflow is established to everyone's satisfaction.
