No argument there - although it does depend what and what quantity you're storing as to whether a backup becomes unfeasible - running a 4TB RAID5 setup for example.

If you're just archiving films you've ripped from your DVDs for convenient access you're probably not to bothered, but following the original post reason (i.e. backup options) it's definitely still important. It might be better (if still using NAS) to just use 2 smaller NAS boxes instead having 1 backup to the other.
