You're backup drive has failed. I do daily backups on my company-issued PC per policy (doing it right now boss) and I have had several different types of backup drives fail. They usually only last about 6 months and I'm only backing up about 100GBs. This is typical fail rate according to my peers and our IT people.

The LaCie that TR mentioned is probably a one-button backup. You set it to backup whatever it is targeted to and all that you have to do is push a button or use scheduling software. At my office the IT people use them (or something similar) to back up our SAP NetPoint databases. The office is in New Jersey, the server farm is in Virginia. I don't exactly know how it works but it can be done. TR?
