This Type of Backup Possible?

by philldmc . Updated 16 years, 11 months ago

I am wondering if this type of backup is even possible.

Long story short I have a server that is running a RAID 1, two in the set and a hot spare.

I want to rotate a 4th drive. In a nut shell the 4 drive will be my backup drive. In the event of a server failure I can take that 4 drive and move it over to a different server box and “boot” off that drive and resume working until my current server gets fixed.

I know there is Symantec System Recovery and Acronis True image but I was more like referring to just taking the 4 drive plugging it in and just booting off that drive and the server is read to go.

Is this method even possible?
