So PS is on the SSD, my working copy of my photos are on one HDD and the second HDD is my scratch disc (and holds a backup of my 1st HDD and my SSD). The external HDD holds another backup of my SSD and files, and the NAS is a 5 HDD array with a backup of everything. I then have another HDD that is stored at friends with another copy of all my files.
