After each outing, I transfer my photographs to a 1TB external hard drive. I then upload certain photographs to Flickr, and if I've already taken several photographs of a specific bus which I've got another photograph of, I'll archive the photo for use at a later date. I've been taking photos since 2012, and I've used up 142GB worth of memory on this external hard drive, so I still have just under 800 GB left to play with. The amount of photos I've taken has decreased over the years, so I can only imagine that it will last me a good few years yet.
I keep any important documents on USBs, as these aren't too memory intensive and it's easy to store a memory stick.
In this day and age where external storage is so cheap, it's mad not to back everything up. As you say, there's even the option to back up on cloud-based storage such as Google Drive.
