Let's talk backups

So all the catastrophic issues lately have me trying to figure out a cost effective way of backing all the machines up.

I've considered a raid card and dual mirrored drives...nope because if something happens it happens to both drives and I'm screwed no matter what.

So I'm thinking of a large (500gig) external firewire drive. Thoughts/issues?

Ideas of what to use for software? Local geek guy says he likes Norton backup/restore standalone edition. I don't like Norton since they've caused more problems on previous computers...

Would like at least once a week backup only for catastrophic stuff...don't really care about day to day stuff.
