    how much backing up would you do of a media server?

    I have a nas with 2x10tb drives. I mostly just have music, movies and tv shows on it.

    People talk about raid not being a backup, but is that relevant for non-original data? I mean I can always get the media again if need be. It would just be an inconvenience.

    What would you do?
