I also remember a similar warning form an IT collegeau when harddisk FIRST came out, "hard disk provides a false security, always back up"

Yes, but in those days backup meant punch cards
from here
In 1956 IBM invented the first computer disk storage system, the 305 RAMAC (Random Access Method of Accounting and Control). This system could store five MBytes. It had fifty, 24-inch diameter disks!
My first hard drive for a desktop was 10Mb and cost the office $2,000. And that was considered a bargain. Now I can easily buy 10 Terabytes for the same $$.
