My home computer had mirrored hard drives as backup number one. I use Acronis backup as a image of a compete system. I backup important files to my iPhone using an App called Air Sharing and I also backup those files to a thumb drive that I keep with me.

I am covered. One great thing about the 1 TB drive is it is fast and easy. BUT, if you don't take that backup with you and your computer is destroyed in a fire or thieves steal it you are screwed. You need off site backup to be safe.

You really can't have too many backups. Test those backup regularly.

Think belts AND suspenders.
