One backup is enough, more is even better.

one backup is better than nothing but it is definitely not enough to be safe

Well, sure it is. With one backup, your data will not be lost unless both the master data and the backup data is destroyed at the same exact time.

which can easily happen, since most people have their backup sitting next to their computer (or very close to it).

if fire burns down their house, or a thug breaks in and steals everything, both the main drive and the backup are gone.

offsite backups *must* be part of any backup strategy.
