The best way to handle this scenario would be to create a DFS share and have the files replicated. This way the profiles will not be stored on just one server.

You can check out this link: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsserver2003/techinfo/overview/dfs.mspx for information on DFS.

Hope this helps.
