Storing backup files in several locations protects your data from a variety of threats such as hardware failures, natural catastrophes, and theft. You can always recover your files from another location if one location is compromised.

Having backup files in several locations provides for faster and easier recovery in the event of a disaster. Without relying on a single backup source, you can simply access your files from a different place.

Keeping backup files in several locations increases the security of your data. If one place is compromised, your files in other locations are not affected, reducing the risk of data loss or illegal access.
