I do not have any experience with backups wat so ever. &nbsp;What is a good rule as far as frequency? &nbsp;Do you recommend daily, weekly, monthly? &nbsp;Currently I have been using the builtin windows backup and have been getting files about 14-15 gb and storing the backup on its own drive. &nbsp;Also, do you have any idea how this install process works as far as which modules of this software go where?

I currently run one SBS2003 server with exchange, a webserver (iis6), and SQL database.  I want to know the best way to setup Acronis True Image Enterprise 9.1 as it has various modules to install from the main menu.  I have read some other posts but all included backing up to backup servers which i do not have.  I currently have a Raid 1 setup (mirroring).  I was considering a NAS as opposed since we can not afford an additional server to use as a backup server.  Does anyone have any recommendations on the best way of setting this up in my environment?  Is it possible to write backups to a CDRW until I have a NAS to write backups to?  Is something wrong with writing backups to the server itself since I mirror the drive?

Planning/Setup of Acronis True Image Enterprise 9.1

The term "Backup" means the methods and processes involved to copy computer data (system data as well as application data) to media other than the ones where the data originally live (disk, tape, optical, cloud). "Restore" in turn means the methods and processes involved in data recovery, i. e., bringing back copied computer data to their original location. Backup/Restore primarily serves as a means of protection against data loss, be it due to disaster, corruption or sabotage. It can also be used for recovering data from an earlier point in time and even for cloning machines or applications. There is a wide variety of backup/restore software available, from expensive commercial products to free or open source tools.
