What are the pros and cons you see on one or other backup method.

Some people prefer Raid Disks for backups, other to backup to an external server with CDP or Acronis or something else.

Someone people use only RAID configs for backups other only offsite backup.

Whats the main advantages of one system over the other. It would be nice so see some opinions. I still prefer offsite backups myself to avoid data corruption.
