RAID

[Steve Tickle <nospam [at] quarndon.co.uk>]

In the course of me exploring linux as an alternative to our M$ based 
systems here I need to address backing up of data. We currently use a 
system that backs up in real time (sort of) to an Iomega Zip (or Jazz) 
drive. We'd like to continue in this vein as periodic back ups are a pain 
in the a*rse.
It occurred to me that as the amount of data we want to back up could 
increase dramatically we could consider RAID.
My question is, what software RAID systems exist for linux, what's involved 
and how much of a pain are they to set up?

Thanks in advance

Steve
