Here's where the beauty of Linux shines. The folks I service who have a Linux file server get an rsync off site backup done automatically every night, to my own server, a service I offer them for free.
I'm paying for my bandwidth anyway, but I must say rsync (over ssh, i.e. encrypted btw) doesn't use much bandwidth at all.
oh, they get the server software for free, too. =D
I've never trusted anyone else to handle my client's critical data.
