I will shortly be migrating a database from SQL Server 2005 (part of SBS 2003) to SQL Server 2008 R2 Express Edition

The database is small, and there are only a few hundred short transactions per day - I'd like to keep everything as simple as possible from a recovery perspective whilst minimising the amount of lost data in the event of a failure

Can I just run a full backup every hour using Windows Scheduler? I already have a solution for long term archival of database backups which these could just plug in to

What can I do to back up the 'logins' - I understand they are not saved as part of a full database backup. I want to have everything necessary to be able to perform bare metal recovery if we have to

Anything else I need to think about?
