Two external HD's. Photos and documents to SkyDrive. Full backup to Backblaze.

I use both an external hard drive and DVD-RAM for backups. I would never trust some online service (and I still refuse to call the internet a cloud )

1TB HDD with Data only on it and an external for back up backup.

[GreatMarkO]

Two home servers (located in separate cities), backing up x2 desktop PC's, x4 laptops, x1 tablet, a couple of complete daily remote website backups, a hand full of IMAP servers, and a couple of dozen MySQL databases onto both internal and externally connected HDDs to both home servers. Each home server then also daily syncs critically important files between the two for added redundancy!

Secondary Harddrive in my Server

[Colin McGregor]

Used to use HDD but now use skydrive

I use a WHS, + external HDD's and the cloud.

[scorpian007]

Got my important files all on SkyDrive. Was using CrashPlan but saw no point in having 2 cloud back ups

[Ambroos]

Everything but photos is on Dropbox, I trust them to have their backup sorted

My photos (around 300GB nowadays, yay for RAW) are on a 500GB HDD that is mirrored weekly onto an identical drive. Every few months I mirror it to another identical 500GB drive that is then stored at my grandparents' place.

1TB + 2 TB External HDD

[Lord Method Man]

Server with a 6TB RAID 5 backed up regularly to separate HDDs stored elsewhere.

Windows 8 File History to a USB HDD for now. I would like an offsite backup as I worry about loosing my pictures which has happened once before!

HDD on my server which is mirrored on to the amazing CrashPlan service. Unlimited space plus unlimited versioning so files will never get deleted, even if I delete them - they will always be recoverable.

It's all about reducing the chances of data loss. Chances of HDD failing + CrashPlan failing together are very slim - there is a chance, but very slim.

I may plan to backup to another HDD soon as a just in case.

Everything goes to external HDD and those extra important things go off to Google Drive, SkyDrive and Dropbox depending on if they're work or personal based.
