Server downtime is always a nightmare for any host but 24 hours seems a bit excessive.

In case one of our servers were to die in such a spetacular way we actually backup all our servers each night to two different off-site locations, and also have backup servers standing by. If the worse were to ever happen and a server were to have a complete hardware failure we can use the backup to recreate the server onto a nice shiny new unused Quad Core Xeon backup server.

Each of our servers use mirrored RAID drivers so if one drive fails the other will keep going. Our backup devices also use mirrored RAID drivers so a copy of your web site is actually kept on 6 hard drives!

This may all seem a bit excessive but any downtime is a complete nightmare for any company, so we want to ensure that we have a good backup plan in place so any major problems can be fixed as soon as possible.
