I only plug it in to do backups. The rest of the time it is unplugged and away

That's good.

from the regualr PC. I have an UPS and 2 surge protectors between all my PC stuff and any electrical outlet. This IS a home system, and I don't really have access to an off-site storage facility..

A friend's home in another town nearby, or even just at the work
office can be "off site" if it's several miles away. A bank safety
deposit box is better, but costs more. It doesn't have to be
a "data security vault provider". :-)

I do rsync daily to a 2nd internal HD, regualt backups to the Mybook external, and I also burn DVDs of things that are critical ( to me). I live in Georgia ( USA, north of Florida) and I have a UPS on my computer stuff, and another one on my TV/stereo/Satellite setup.

I've got a sister who lives near Savannah, though I don't know
what the significance of living in Georgia is. There are banks
with safety deposit boxes in Georgia, and people even have
friends who live a few miles away in Georgia, so I hear :-)
