Is backing your hive account as much of an issue if your do not leave your computer on all the time ?

Independent of that, I would say. As long as you have two devices at all times, it should be more than ok. The important bit is to have the recovery account set to someone who can definitely help you in case you either get hacked or lose all your keys.

And usually your owner key is not on Hive keychain, so you need to store that one at least securely somewhere.

Alternatively, you can put them on a USB pen (password-encrypted) and store that in a safe place, just in case.

An important note that I forgot to mention. To initiate a recovery process with your recovery account, you need to know at least one previously owner key or password (up to 3 last ones I think... or 5, would have to check). Otherwise one can't trigger the process.

So, its important to have that owner key or password safe somewhere, or change your keys on purpose, and then keep the old key somewhere safe (because it can still trigger the process).
