Genuinely surprised to see this kind of tired old nonsense peddled here - backups.

You always have backups, ideally multiple backups.

Also, why is 1TB ideal? Don't you remember when disks were under a 100MB, and a several gigabyte hard drive seemed like fantasy?

I've heard the same thing over and over.. "I'll lose more data per disk"...

I just see the opportunity to back up even more data in less physical space.
