Multiple backups. Redundancy is the name of the game (redundancy and paranoia)!
1) Backblaze - fire-and-forget cloud backup, running in the background [constant]
2) Time Machine drive - what if I have no network access and need to recover work? [daily, when I'm at my desk]
3) Carbon Copy Cloner - what if I suffer a catastrophic boot disk failure? [weekly]
The drives for Time Machine and Carbon Copy Cloner are in separate geographical locations (fire, theft, etc).
CCC creates bootable backups, so if my internal SSD drive dies I can boot from USB or just switch the drive out, then restore any changes from TM. Minimal downtime!
