I was the same way years ago until I moved into a small apartment building 
with tenants that could not be trusted. So I started worrying that if "shit
happened" there better be a good backup strategy for handling gigabytes and
now terabytes of family pictures, videos, legal documents, finances etc.

While the solutions others mentioned are good... theres something of peace of 
mind with a very simple Windows program that takes a raw image of the entire
system, OS and programs included. Drive snapshot has the functionality of 
professional grade software in one executable file and just works.

It has ran here for many years now, backing up everything to local NAS and
external storage routinely swapped out and kept off-site. No worries anymore.
