Hard drives are cheap and you can get a hot swap drive bay for about $15. Easy to do a full image. 2+ spares for backups make it even more secure just rotate them.

I like the way you think! But most people are not that technically savvy, nor do they want to manage the grunt-work of dealing with a bunch of drives. The problem is compounded if you have multiple systems or are using devices like tablets and smartphones.
Well my method is even more complicated. I have a server and image everything to a raid set there then do a backup of the server to hot swap drives. I also keep all the important stuff on either the server or my NAS and back those up too. Only take 11tb to back up each month.
