At the bare minimum, or at least to start get data in a raid that losing a drive or 2 won't cause you to lose everything. You're not out of the yet. If you can't lose your files you want 2 separate copies in different machines, preferably at different locations. Be that a cloud service or a remote server.
My files are on my local NAS server that are also backed up to my remote NAS server at my dad's house over a VPN. Essential files (not my plex media) are also in a 1tb cloud service. 3-2-1 backup plan is probably ideal but I'm pretty happy with my 2.5-2.5-1.5 approach ๐ . 3-3-2 for critical stuff and 2-2-1 for everything else.
