My final point is be very careful with those SSD's and backups.
If your data is corrupted and backups are corrupted, you're toast.
Back up at least a week's worth, and rotate backup drives, because I was called in to fix a major problem and the backups were also corrupted going back a week - the client was in all sorts of trouble getting data back.
I implemented a plan whereby a backup was taken on a seperate drive for archiving which was verified by a second system and rotated backup drives for the remainder. However, this was a very large organistation. Just an example of the many pitfalls.
