Data recovery is expensive. Do you back up your data?

First thing I would do is to stay away from these cloud backups.
Second, I would invest at least on 3 different external drives with higher capacity.
I had my backup on 500GB, before I waited to see it go bad, I bought another 2 Terabyte External Drive, and transferred all that 500 GB to it. That old 500GB still is there, but don't use it at all. Now, this 2 Terabyte External Drive , just recently got replaced by 3rd  three Terabyte Western Digital USB3 drive, all old content got transferred to it.  I don't use that 2 TB anymore, sitting there as a backup. All new backups on this new 3 TB external drive is being mirrored at the moment to my computers harddrive and itself.
And looking forward to 64GB-128GB new flash drive coming soon in the market.
Besides, dropbox is there to satiate my other flashy storage need for documents and stuffs..
Why would you wanna put your important files on the cloud, Neo bro? 
I know there is big marketing stunt on this new cloud thing.. but I don't buy it yet.
