If it *must* survive, 3-2-1 is the way to go.

3 copies (Original, Backup, and Backup of the Backup)
2 different media types (such as HDD(Orig) + HDD(Bk1) + Optical(Bk2))
1 stored offsite

That being said, most of my stuff isn't of the "absolutely must survive"
nature, so I just have it on external HDDs.  If something is
particularly important, it's on HDDs and also somewhere like google
drive / dropbox (although, encrypted when at those places).
