    I have a lot of terrabytes in my system, and this is my routines:

    Active files:
    2 separate internal drives + Time Machine (on workstation)

    Archive:
    Internal drive, External drive, DVD´s and online.

    When a project is completed, I burn it on DVDs, and keep one digital index and one handwritten. Next I put it on an external drive. I hook this drive up to one of my home computers (mac), and back up the disk to BackBlaze (www.backblaze.com).

    As ethanfink says, Dropbox is good for sharing files, but not for mass storage. A good idea is to keep your documents (invoices, to-to-lists etc) on there, and sync it to all your computers.
