An Internal HDD has the advantage that you can see your data safely all the time, but I’d think that storing the data on an external HDD in a cabinet, or somewhere safe place probably makes the HDD live longer. Is that so? Or not really?

    Use internal drives with a dock and store cold. Saves the hassle of dealing with a bunch of cases and power adapters.

    For fully on backup all the time use a versioned backup like time machine or a cloud service.
