storage server fail-over

[Muhammad Yousuf Khan <sirtcp@gmail.com>]

i have a storage server (samba) and now there is a requirement from my
management that i should provide a centralized document storage server
where people can store their working document. (so this means another
layer of responsibility :*(, (never mind)).

i already have raid 1 implemented on SAMBA Server and using it as a
Data backup and archiving, so what if machine dies?
so my question is do you guys think that the best way of doing this is
SAMBA or ISCSI or any other network sharing service which also provide
a good fail-over plan.



Thanks,
