Why are you not using cloud storages? It is much more safer than saving locally. For example use iCloud for storage, and Backblaze for backup?

I tried using cloud storage a couple of years ago, but it was no good as my Rekordbox database, and not recommended by Pioneer. I'm going to look into it again now though, after reading some of the responses in this thread. Won't make this mistake again. Thanks!

Our network security director at my place of work recommends backing up with traditional hard drive, secondary backup on flash and if possible and practical, a tertiary backup in the cloud

What about Onedrive, iCloud, Google Drive or Dropbox?

Yeah, I'll be looking into all of those options, I'm just not sure which is best for Rekordbox use yet. I'll do some research and then decide what's the best option for me.

All my other digital files are backed up in cloud services, just not my enormous music library yet!

Backblaze has unlimited space, maybe you can use it as backup?

How secure is backblaze? Like last pass secure or actually spends money worth a damn on their security ?

https://www.backblaze.com/company/privacy.html and https://www.backblaze.com/blog/how-to-make-strong-encryption-easy-to-use/ might answer your question.

Also, not related to privacy, they have versioning system. Normal accounts have 30 days of versioning of every backed up file and you can upgrade it to unlimited time versioning. I think it was extra 15-20 USD per year for that

This is on their $7 per month plan? It is hard to believe that for $7 monthly you have unlimited cloud storage .
