A blessing, because I'm in the process of converting several DVDs of family videos in a - hopefully - more future-proof format, and a curse because some horror stories I've read made my level of paranoia skyrocketing.

In the end, I will have less than 2 Tb of images and videos to preserve, and my 3-2-1 strategy is the following: 1 copy on iCloud, 1 copy on internal HDD, 1 copy on external HDD.

For the offline copy, a dedicated NAS seems an overkill to me, I'm considering an external, non-RAID enclosure with a decent HDD (WD Blue).

Please let me know your view (even if I'm afraid I already know the answer...)
