As someone who lost data before (multiple times) I went for a overkill solution. 
Currently in the works:
- #ZFS Mirror 2 x 4TB SSD
- Directly attached 2TB SSD via a USB adapter (Running backup leveraging #rsync every day)
- Offsite 4TB spinning disk that get's plugged in every week (Also using #rsync here)
#FreeBSD and #ZFS keeps my data safe and a disaster strategy is also in place.
Btw, three different filesystems used (#ZFS, #EXT4, #UFS) 
Better safe than sorry I'd say! 
Advanced #Programming in the #UNIX Environment
The #UFS File System (from the -- by now old -- "#Solaris Internals" book)

Advanced #Programming in the #UNIX Environment
Week 4, The Unix Filesystem
We begin a closer look at the Unix Filesystem (#UFS) and the Berkeley Fast Filesystem (FFS). We see how the filesystem structures the disk and organizes files and directories, visualize the concept of hard links, and observe how operations on a directory are independent of the files and their data.
Took the next step also upgrading my router/firewall VM to #FreeBSD 14.1. This was the typical multi-reboot dance
# make installkernel
# shutdown -r now
# etcupdate -p
# make BATCH_DELETE_OLD_FILES=yes installworld delete-old
# shutdown -r now
# etcupdate
# pkg upgrade -f
# pkg autoremove
# make BATCH_DELETE_OLD_FILES=yes delete-old-libs
# shutdown -r now
... because it's on #UFS. But of course, I took a #ZFS snapshot of the virtual disk first
If you are a #Canadian in the market for #cards for your #gaming may I humbly suggest checking out https://redriotgames.ca/ ? They're a store in #Mississauga that specializes in #FleshAndBlood #MagicTheGathering and possibly #UVS / #UFS but don't quote me on that. @RyanChartier would know better than I, since he's part of the team running it. They aim to support the local trading card community in #YYZ (but they do sell int'lly).

@solene #OpenBSD 7.4 FFS2 fared better than #FreeBSD 14 UFS with #SoftUpdates (in the #powerCutTests).
