How many of you guys backup your files?

I'm looking for a good backup external drive setup with a mirror so I can offload all of my 4K footage.

I've got super essential stuff backed up on Google Drive, and everything else is backed up on an external 3TB drive. That being said, only the essential stuff in drive i really backed up. If say my house was to burn down, I'd lose whatever is on the drive doo, so not really a backup. Barring that sort of thing though, the 3TB has all my stuff on it.
