DRBD, www.drbd.org
drbd is like a RAID1 (mirror) over LAN. data is written almost at the 
same time on the the 2 host. 

can i suggest to use a separate network for disk mirroring (ex. using a 
crossovercable for the 2 machine's  2nd NIC or eth1). but the replication
process wouldn't maximize the network's throughput due to the
bottleneck caused by the HDD. consider first your NIC/HDD speed.
