Skip on USB connected IMO.  It's not not reliable enough ALL the time,
and your backups need to be 100% reliable.  
 
Go eSATA if you're going to go super cheap for the drives.  For anything
medium-to-large business I'd recommend SCSI only.

How about a 300 GB USB drive ($250)  and software like NovaStor Backup
($120/server)?  You can keep several backup copies on the drive, the
drive can go off site in an emergency, and if the drive fails it's not
costly to replace.

Hello,
 
Anybody know of any good disk-based backup systems for a small company
(5 Windows Servers) Ideally I would like to keep it under $5k.
 
Thanks!
