I originally asked about a long term maintenance problem, on how to solve
dependency on one disk server. This isn't a full summary since I haven't
investigated any of the solutions mentioned (as I originally said, it's a
long term stability problem), so I'll just mention potential solutions I have
been told about.
Thanks to the following, with a summary of their comments.
