I like the busines continuinty (sp?) plan: hot, warm, and cold backups.

From me:

- Hot backups: backups on a local NAS, AWS S3
- Warm backups: backup to a USB stick stored in a media safe in my closet
- Cold backups: tape backups stored in a storage room in town using the 
grandfather/father/son incremental backup method
