I'd add that you need at least one copy which is normally disconnected from the computer so you can't accidentally delete anything, nor have it encrypted by ransomware etc. I'm about to change my backups slightly because my Time Machine backup doubles as my working drive for photos (the SSD in my computer is too small to hold my photos). Not only is it a bit slow to transfer files over USB2, it's even worse if the computer starts a backup while I'm working. So I have a USB3 SSD on the way which will become my working drive for photos, with the old HDDs still serving as backups.
