 When I had my sites/forums going I had a daily general backup done and weekly I would also do a database back up to a external HD here just in case something went wrong with all that.

The chances of what you had happen Marc is slim but I have seen it happen a few times over the years. I've even heard of whole clusters of servers crashing before but that was a few years back.

Anytime you have important data like what you have Marc backup backup backup is a must. And make sure you have good Malware protection in place too. Multi-layered is best. With over lapping protection. There is no such thing as 100% safe or secure but you can do your best and when something like this happens know you did your best.
