There is no way to have a standby server to take over for SBS, because of the unique requirement to have the SBS server hold all the FSMO roles and be the first server in the domain. A second server would be a whole new domain and workstations would have to be disjoined from the old and rejoined to the new
The solution is to have a) quality server components b) have verifiable backups
SBS 2003 can be restored from back up or I recommend Storage Craft which can assist in restoring SBS to completely different hardware.
