        Way to just stereotype my profession… Even though it’s true with some guys! Hahaha

        If you have an offsite copy of your files (and not in a sync service like Dropbox) you are already in a better position than most.

        Restoring from offsite takes time, even with Backblaze’s option of shipping a hard disk. You may also have data corruption troubles, companies may close all of sudden. It’s just not as convenient as local copies.

        A further copy that is locally available is simply a better strategy. Adding more copies after these two is not a bad idea but you start getting hit by the law of diminishing returns.

        You can actually read more about the 3-2-1 rule in a Backblaze post: https://www.backblaze.com/blog/the-3-2-1-backup-strategy/

            It can highly depend on what hardware you are using and that depends on your life style.

            If you are a traveling active individual, the 2 “local” storage could be a phone and a laptop. In this case if you are robbed what do you do? In some cases the files and information on those devices could be worth more then the devices themselves. A “non-local” storage can be used in this scenario to recover the lost data.
