Not to give myself more credit than I deserve, but I did test them upon setup, and had restored from backup 2 years ago. I didn’t have any ongoing checks other than to ensure a backup happened. I have since instituted yearly checks of the backups themselves, but I did feel dumb when I realized how vulnerable my data was.
Repeat after me:
“An untested backup does not exist”

So in the event of a failure, you’d be okay with reverting to that last known good backup from a year ago?
