Backup root disks

Hi all!

Please I would appreciate some inputs on the following:

I have inherited a SUN BLADE chassis with 6 T6320 server modules, in which there is only 1 root disk in all of them. I need to do a backup of the root disk in case those disk crash. But there is no backup device attached to it. So please can I have some ideas how to solve this problem.
