RE: It may be helpful. Consider online backups for your important digital documents
Really nice tips too.

I do agree that having a storage system with raid is not a backup (although you may save versioned copies). Rather it serves to lower the risk of failures.
And yes, having two copies on two different online services is even better.

It all depends on the budget (not only money, also time, willpower to pour in the maintenance and setup. The latter being the bigger part of it).

Only one observation about encrypting. Yes for increased security and privacy, you may encrypt them. I am already happy to have a copy, if someone from the service wants to have a look at it, be it (n1).

n1: I seriously doubt that the staff from onedrive or what you have goes through looking for petabytes (but even terabytes are enough) of data. They won't be able to do their work.

Wikis are great, Contribute :)
