- Your data is at most risk from yourself. Other risks such as hackers, burlgars, fire or hardware failures aren't nearly as dangerous to your data as you are.
- Backup is HARD. Have someone else do it.
- Mirroring is fine for one first copy. Whether that copy is raid or just another NAS or something, but there should always be a proper BACKUP too.
- To be a proper backup it should be 1) Write only/snapshotting, so even if you remove all your local files, the deltions aren't mirrored. 2) Have long retention. When you mess up a document you want to be able to notice 2 years later and just fetch that version 3) Be off site so theft and fire doesn't risk the primary copy and the backups.
