rsnapshot (http://www.rsnapshot.org/ http://www.rsnapshot.org/) running on a Linux machine with three 2T WD red's in RAID5 config using md. LVM sitting on top of the RAID5 to allow parceling out space as needed. One of the LVM partitions is the rsnapshot backup tree.
Cron setup on the backup server to take nightly rsnapshots of the machines that get backed up. The only machine that does not get nightly's is my laptop, as it is often hibernating overnight, so it gets periodic pushes when it is not hibernating.
Occasional rsync of the rsnapshot tree to an offsite location.
Of course it helps that I have zero mswin machines.
