Hi, xoshooter.

There are a lot of different ways to "archive" things, and my best advice is to use a hybridized method. I'd rotate two (or more, depending on your comfort level) full backups, one on and one offsite, every week or so.

You can continue to keep your DVDs, etc.

The two full backup drives, created with SuperDuper!, should be fine for your documents and the like: it depends on how far "back" you feel you need to go, you know? If you're protecting against a disaster, then the two rotates drives should be fine. If you're trying to roll back "to the beginning of time", bit-by-bit, full backups like this aren't the right way to go.

Does that make sense?
