Have you tried call HP support (OK I know its Cristmas) in Denmark they have
a free support to sort problems like these out (works exelent).
In the meantime you can backup on a local workstation (remember encryption
and strong passwords) using the SBS backup (doesnt help you much if
everything burns, but it is better than nothing.
