Same here.
I only backup stuff like receipts, certificates, passwords and some of my work folders. The rest, I'll somehow manage without.

Also, I keep the backup in an easy enough place that I can take it and run, in case of a large enough earthquake that destroys my comp.

Or you could pay backblaze a few bucks a month to back up terabytes and not die with you data.

Yeah, I'm trying to pitch a new product to them for quick burst data recovery snapshots. I'm calling it backshots!
