Looks like you've already purchased, but just wanted to pop in to say that I have two external HDs, both 4 TB, and run at 7200 rpm. I don't use either of them as backup, but one of them holds my design files, scrapbook kits, and photos. The other holds my layouts (I save PSDs) and other misc files.
I use Backblaze for my backup service and have for quite a few years. I've had one hard drive failure, and it was easy to contact Backblaze and get the entirety of my drives sent to me on one portable external hard drive. While I was waiting for that to be shipped ot me, I could access my files via Backblaze's cloud, and download individual files or folders if I needed them before the hard drive arrived.
