My /home partition lives on a RAID-1 array. Once in a blue moon, I'll back up /etc (most system settings), dump a list of installed packages, and keep 'em in my home directory. Assuming I have replacement parts, I've had a machine let the magic smoke out and I was back up and running with all data intact in just under 30 minutes.

Nothing I have is worth an off site backup, with a few exceptions and those get stored in a few places...
