We do weekly offsite backups, which was restored, so we lost a weeks worth of data since the site failed on Saturday and we run the offsite backup on Sunday.

The new server has more cpu, more ram, and hopefully be far more stable.

We are very sorry for the data loss, we are investigating options for nightly (or at least more frequent) full offsite backups.

Going forward:
1) ISP doing weekly offsite full server backup
2) I have weekly offsite backups of each website
3) I have nightly backups of PBR databases

With this plan, a worst case we loose 1 day of posts not 7. Having a nightly database backup will ensure that we have all of the posts and users ....
