From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

ZFS will let you setup a RAID like set of small volumes which mirror one larger volume, it takes some setup, but that's the most "elegant" solution in that once it's configured you only need to touch it when you add a volume to the system and it's just a mounted filesystem that you use.
Does not solve the off-site problem, one fire and it's all gone.
It would also require all the secondary drives to be connected at all times, wouldn't it?
