Remote Backups

I'm finding that with a larger amount of servers, it's probably more cost effective to do remote backups instead of local backups to another drive.

I was planning on making a server with like 4 200 GB HDs and colocating it to some cheap datacenter with large amounts of transfer.

Now I've heard I'd want to use something called rsync which uploads one backup/day but only files that have changed. Has anyone tried this with cpanel servers yet? If so, how would I want to store it on the backup machine? Would I want to backup dns zones also?
