Both of my computers have a built in RAID, just two drives that are mirrored. When a drive fails it is easy to swap and it rebuilds the raid. The biggest problem with that is the need for off site storage. In case of a fire, burglar, or tornado or some other event off site is necessary.
I don't worry at all about mudslides, earthquakes, tsunamis, race riots, or forest fires. A grass fire is a very remote possibility. The zombie apocalypse is right up there with bigfoot attacks or extraterrestrials.
I do back up the critical files at my business partner's house on a RAID 5 device.
And I also use an APP on my cell phone called AirDisk Pro. It makes a connection that works just like a virtual USB drive. I can use WI-FI and copy any file from my Win10 pro computer to the phone. I can easily copy them back off and delete or change them. Since I have my phone with me all the time I have access to critical files at any time. If the FBI can't get into a iPhone I guess it is hacker proof if someone steals my phone. The phone has a code and AirDisk Pro has a password as well.
