I assume when you mention `on-site` you mean my house - yep, NAS is at home.

  What happens if a fire at your house destroys both your computer and the NAS? Or if a thief steals both? Are your data permanently lost?

    If my house cought fire my NAS burns, and that's fine. If I survive the fire I can still access my email. If I don't Linode shuts it down month later, so it's good for the planet too ;)

      I think the idea was more like... if you can afford a RAID6 NAS at home you can afford Backblaze so don't be silly and get some offsite redundancy going.

        Thank you for drawing my attention to this, I was not aware of Backblaze! I'll have to deduplicate my backups (of backups of backups) and will definitely look into saving most precious bits!
