Thanks for the extra input! Any particular backup testing protocol you recommend? These are just personal external hard drives. I also backup to cloud storage,

  > backup testing protocol you recommend? Just the naive way you'd restore a backup. Spot check restore files. Nothing crazy technical or unintuitive. Make sure the darn thing works every once in a while. This perspective comes from talking to a tap backup operator at a major visual effects studio. Turns out someone somewhere was backing up to tape for years and it was all garbage, but they didn't find out until years and years and jobs and jobs later when they tried to do a restore.
