I think you're right about just keeping an extra Mini, ready-to-go. Leave it sealed right up. They're great little computers. Although, we wouldn't need any backup until we actually go beyond local cruising.
Unfortunately we'll need to wait until SSD's get more capacity and cheaper. We have about 120gb of music, and a decent movie selection on the same HD. We do keep backups on external drives.
The Argonaut is the one, yes. There's also one local vendor that presented a pretty good quote on something with the same specs. It has a very industrial looking brushed stainless case. All the usual water resistant specs too.
