Basically title. Is it common to use some kind of RAID for backing up other RAIDs or do people just go with single drives?

    A mirror raid with a filesystem that does error correction based on checksums (btrfs/ZFS) and incremental backups with snapshots is probably the safest… and you should still have another off-site backup if it is really important data.

    But for most home use stuff a single drive for backups that you regularly do is sufficient in 95% of the cases.
