Sunny, can I suggest you use 2.5" notebook drives for your external drives instead of 3.5" desktop drives. The notebook drives are much more robust, even if a little more expensive.

Just use TWO inexpensive usb external harddisks. Calculate your size (mostly one week)
Swap this device each day before running backup.
Now you can store backup offsite and have a backup (one day older) when your other backup disk would crash.
