 I generally will do one of two things in addition to my normal backups.

1. run a cron that exports the database, then gzip it - I rsync that
off to another machine.
2. I replicate the database to other machines in the same tier.

I agree about the CF failure as well. No biggie. I would copy it's
partition somewhere else once a week for a potential restore of just
such a failure.
