Hopefully, Jen was talking about adding a server "in place of" the other. We'll see.
Jen, now we are getting into backups. I don't want to second guess your IT guy, but I would NOT take the external backup home. I would have at least two backups at your office that STAY at your office, and a small external hard drive (you can still get a small one that is over 250GBs) to take back and forth. And, you can do it weekly or as much as you like. But, you don't want a server crash and then wonder if the ONE drive is working and WHERE is the other drive. "Wait, I think I left it in my car. No, it's at my house. Wait.." You need off site, but you need on site as well.
