You weren't aware of the recent issue with theplanet? Quality host, quality network... big downtime. It's not just the individual server parts you need to think about when preparing a disaster plan, there could be a massive event that affects a huge number of customers for hours or even days. The only true reliable backup (whether live or otherwise) is off network and off site.
