[SLUG] a simple harddrive backup scheme

If I want to become responsible and start backing up my data on a daily
basis, what's the simplest, lowest maintenance way to go? I'm thinking
a cron job that runs a bash script which copies specified folders to the
other drive. Does this sound like a path of least resistance? Is there
good free open source software that can manage this for me?

Eventually, I'd like to play with RAID arrays and such, but not yet.
Thanks!
