Funnily enough, just yesterday a friend of mine just told me that a few years ago the database of a blog community he runs got corrupted and had to be recovered. Unfortunately, the server where he was sending his backups got full like 3 months prior and he didn't know, so he had basically lost 3 months of data. He recovered most posts checking Google Cache too. And yes, now he has all the systems properly set up with alerts, proper backups and such :)
