And the next disaster is when the hard disk fails and hasn't been

No!

He has already reloaded at least once from a backup following at least

He backs up to a portable hard drive and also to his main desktop PC.
Backups can be incremental or full, and he is aware of how to initiate

This may not be ideal, but so far it has worked.
