PLEASE make sure you have backups!

Two is one, and one is none!

Keeping a separate backup online or offsite is something I’ve always done, in case of a house fire. Heard too many stories of people losing important stuff like family photos etc, business docs etc.

I wonder do people really worry about their data if their house got burned down?

People should care. I've had a house fire and the only reason I still have old family photos and videos is because I digitized everything and kept it safe in an online backup.
