I backup all of my drives. I currently have 6 drives with stuff and 6 as backups. I've only had4 drive failures in the past the decade and they'll all been Lacie. 100% failure rate on those things.
Well, I did have 2 Maxtor 80G drives finally go out but they were 7 years old.
1T is expensive and you can probably get 2 750s for the same price. Listen to Rowan and make sure that you have some redundancy for when one of the drives fails.
