Informally everyone checked out the entire source tree in Subversion and kept it updated so unless the building was nuked there would be a backup. For my works in progress I'd have the code on two or three machines plus the corporate OneDrive. My personal projects at home usually are copied to two or three machines. I don't bother with the cloud since there's nothing I couldn't recreate. Docmentation, SDKs, IDEs and so forth are safely stored wherever I got them from in the first place, and probably newer versions to boot. I do have some mp3s on a WD Passport and assorted thumb drives because no way in hell do I want to rip a shelf full of CDs again. At least they're easier than cassettes.
