The one thing I always stress is BACK EVERYTHING UP. It would be devastating to lose.
For important files like that, don't wait for a daily or weekly backup- back them up immediately. Save a copy on a non-boot drive just in case the originals get screwed up. And then copy those backups to external media on a daily basis. I've used DVD-R's but with Flash drives being so cheap you could keep an alternating set of daily backups until you can do a more comprehensive weekly backup.
Well, that's what I recommend- I just wish I could follow my advice better!
