I trust Hardware Wallet (Trezor) to secure my bitcoin. We have seen many cases in the recent time where bitcoin holders lost their keys so that can not retrieve again unless you secure your keys to another place. Losing keys means total loss because we do not have the option to click the forget password and can make the new so negligence can cost huge to anyone So I suggest keeps your keeps in 2 places so that if by mistake you lost it from one place still you would have the option to access from another place.
