I've never wanted that sort of backup in the last 20 years of computer usage. I think it's a bit old fashioned honestly. Nowadays a computer is an ephemeral thing; all that's persistent is files in the cloud, git repos, and provisioning config to get a new machine in a similar state to the last one. And yes I know "similar" there will have made your heart skip a beat :)

My backup is "the cloud". It's a remote store of my stuff.
I've got about 6tb of local storage attached to my two machines. I couldn't afford Google Drive or similar for that.
