[K12OSN] OT: Off-site data replication

Hi List,
We are searching for methods of replicating important data to an
off-site (but still connected to the network via fiber) location. For
example, our mailserver (qmail and Courier IMAP) is backed up daily, but
if we had a hard disk failure just before a backup, we would lose 24
hours of data.
What are some alternatives in replicating data in a relatively-live
manner? A SAN is an option, but is something that extensive required?
Would doing an rsync every 15 minutes bring the box to its knees?
Thanks for any ideas!
Mike
