So in war, the way is to avoid what is strong and to strike at what is weak.

You are right.
I've begun contemplating my new build and during the process, examined my storage drives ( I have a 1TB and a 1.5TB drive installed and 3 1TB drives that I access through an external dock).
I realized that most of the "data" is only valuable to me because I "have" it, not because I ever use it (for instance, when will I ever sit down and watch every episode of The West Wing?), so getting all atizzy about safeguarding it is more a theoretical exercise than a real concern.

I totally agree. You can re-download your media collection that you want to keep/watch again. No need to back them up. I use a 1TB external hard drive to store files I need to keep, plus I have the most important on DVD's and on-line storage. The rest is disposable in my honest opinion.
