Only if at least one drive is located in a different building. Otherwise the odds on fire/theft/flood/hurricane/etc destroying all three is too high for you to feel "safe". If these happen insurance will cover the cost of your equipment (hopefully), but will not cover the cost and hardship of data loss. As a spot of "overkill" one of my backups is in a different country!
