I use bcrypt to encrypt my password files and have learned to keep copies on more than one flash drive.
The only problem being, if I encrypt them on FreeBSD that's the only version of bcrypt I've been able to decrypt them with. I have a couple versions on my OpenBSD box but so far haven't been able to get it to decrypt my files.
Other less important files I keep in plain text on at least one USB stick, but it if it went down it wouldn't be the end of the world. Things like system files I can copy off when rebuilding my system instead of typing them out, images, docs I accumulate, ebooks, etc.
