Local to synology. Synology to AWS with synology’s backup app. It costs me pennies per day.

Same, although aws is my plan b. For plan a I have an older Synology that is a full backup target.

On site? I put enterprise drives in my nas. Always have and have never had a drive fail. If one does, raid is good until the replacement arrives.

Raid is no backup. Raid helps you against drive failure.
Backup helps you if you or some script screwed up your data, or you need to go back to last months version of a file for whatever other reason.

Versioning is a feature completely separate from raid or dual nas or whatever else you do. Your example of the house burning down is exactly why I questioned the dual nas… Both nas will be toast.
So please, tell me again why you need 2 nas for versioning? Maybe you’re doing some goofy hack, then ok. That’s still silly. Just do proper versioning. If you’re coding, just use git. Don’t reinvent the wheel.
