either with an external drive(s), or with a backup server

if you're really anal you could use LTO tapes, but it's expensive to get started

Backing up 3TB of shit is not easy for an average person, and a backup strategy that is as susceptible to failure as the warm data is not a good backup strategy.

this isn't mission critical stuff we're talking about, so an external hard drive should be fine. the alternative is to invest in some ungodly expensive enterprise solution, or to cut back on total size by picking and choosing his favorite waifus to preserve

You don't need an enterprise solution. Cloud storage is good and cheap but there are bandwidth issues associated with it.

That's why you need a backup. It's always good to keep 2 copies of everything. Saved my ass more than a few times.

Why would you say that? Power issues can absolutely kill a drive.

All of them? That's incredibly unlikely. If drives couldn't withstand a sudden loss of power then they'd be too fragile to be of any use.

it could have been a spike or surge. possibly a brownout, but generally the power supply will just shut off if it receives less than mains voltage

You don't know what you have until you lose it. And then you still may not know what you had.

This is why I have two 3tb external hard drives, one 2tb, one 1tb hard drive and several usb drives backed up with all my media.

I'm paranoid like that but I gotta make sure
