Actually, depending on what you do and what hobbies etc you do, you CAN have lots of personal data. As a musician, I do music production, photography (I can easily fill up an 8gb card if I'm away on a photo-taking holiday for a few days), and have videos and recordings of rehearsals and gigs. I keep them all and still refer to and use them... I probably have 3-4tb of data from the last 5-6 years. Filmmakers probably have many times that!
Now obviously some people might argue about whether my data needs serious backing up or not, but the same question could be asked of anyone.
