RAID 0 is the best way to ensure data redundancy. It's what we use at every Fortune500 company and there's not an issue.

But it's still not a backup strategy. You should always have a second partition on the server that you sync your data over to. For performance reasons this partition should be on the same RAID 0 array.

Backing up to a different partition on the same RAID array sounds like a good way to lose all your data.

The backup should be physically separate from the original.

Yes, and it should use another type of media, like tape, glass, stone tablets or optical media

We have a bard travel accross the lands and carry out our data by singing epics about it.

That's a valid backup because it's a different media, correct?
