Backup large files in an external disk

Backup large files in an external disk After suffering a few times of external hard disk failure ( it seems that if a disk is a remote hard disk there is a higher chance for it to develop bad sectors), I am now thinking about the backup.

"Funny - I tend to use my external harddrive as my backup drive :)

On my network, I have an Ubuntu box that serves as my main data storage point, and I backup the parts of it I'm really worried about to an external hard drive, or the other computers on the network - using rsync (for the other linux boxes)."
