Backing up to a media server

[Kemik]

Hi all,

I'm thinking of installing 2 x 2TB hard drives in my Windows based media server and running them in RAID. However, I also have the issue of not having a time machine backup at the minute and was hoping to kill two birds with one stone.

Wiki indicates I can't use the media server as a back-up location as it isn't running OS X.

Time Machine places strict requirements on the backup storage medium. The only officially supported configurations are:
A hard drive or partition connected directly to the computer, either internally or by a bus like USB or FireWire, and formatted as journaled HFS+.[5]
A folder on a journaled HFS+ file system shared by another Mac on the same network running at least Leopard.[6]
A drive shared by an Apple Time Capsule on the same network.
On a Time Capsule, the backup data is stored in an HFS+ disk image and accessed via Apple Filing Protocol. Although it is not officially supported, users and manufacturers have configured Linux servers and network-attached storage systems to serve Time Machine-enabled Macs.

Is the only option to use different back-up software? I'm happy to format the 2TB hard drive space into 1TB for each with 1TB for time machine as HFS and the other as FAT32 for media files.

Thanks
