Having said that, I do believe strongly in individual developers backing up their own code since it's much faster to recover from your own individual backup than requesting it from the IT department. I strongly recommend it to any developers I manage.

That is the job of a version control system like subversion. Your personal backup is what you check in in the version control system.
