I have been in the data protection business for a long time... I've listened to people in tears having lost their business data, and a writer his manuscript. It amazes me that people don't take steps...
Go through your system and decide what you can and can't live without.
Back it up!
There are many ways. Tape drives, cd drives, DVD drives, zip drives, memory sticks, other computers.
Get it offsite!
Your backup doesn't do you any good if it is stolen with the computer or god forbid a fire. Fireproof safes don't work for tapes and cd's!

For what it's worth
