I have raid 5 setup on my movies drives and another raid 5 setup on my tv/music/iso storage drives. So in a way I guess I back everything up, but I don't actually keep extra copies around.
I don't back up... at least not now.external USB

basically just the data that's in my documents (includes email pst).
That's called "offsite backup" for a reason -- because it's still backup if it's onsite.i dont consider it backup unless its off site... and i backup everything except temp download folders

Carbonite looks cool because it works in the background and is online but what if your subscription runs out? Is all your data deleted immediately?I have been using Carbonite for 4 months now.
Really, really slow backups. I still haven't completed a full backup of my main rig.
The upside is they have unlimited storage. If you get creative on ebay (like I did) you can get a year for relatively cheap.
And that's why when my office's file server got a mirror in the other office, the mirror came here first to get synchronized. Even a couple hundred GBs can take over a week on your average consumer connection.I have been using Carbonite for 4 months now.
