Back up help

Im trying to think which is kinda hard for me since i work about 12 hour shift. Maybe yall can help

I need a new way of backing up

I have 2 servers both with 4 80 gig hardrives for back ups

And I have 39 servers i have about 500 websites running off each one. Some of them less. I have no problems with them.

For each site im only going to back up there site, cgi-bin, mysql database. which for each site depending on there site size is no bigger than lets say um... 400mb roughly

Okay so here is the real scoop. I wanna do this with rsync
but here is where im stuck

for each server should i have folders say server1 put in all server 1 backups tar up each site then compress it to consurve space, and easy transfer via sftp. If yall have another way i would like to know or something that would be an easier way of just say is server 1 got destroyed a way i can just drop everything on the new hard drive with out many problems...

Im thinking for each server i have about 16 gigs for back up room to fit all the 39 servers sites backups on the 2 servers. Any help or suggestions would be great. I can give additional information if need! Thanks Again Back up help
