I asked a very similar question earlier and the consensus is to encrypt before you upload. That way you care more about reliability than privacy
And make sure your encryption keys are stored securely. You don't want a house fire or something to destroy your keys and your data.
Multiple pen-drives with encrypted storage holding keys; how does that sound? Good idea?
Flash loses memory over many years. I'd use like 3 different mediums and always keep a hash of the key with the key.
