The adverbial formation is regular, but the technical sense referring to deliberate duplication for backup may not be obvious to learners who only know the 'superfluous' sense of 'redundant'.

Etymology

Redundantly comes from Latin parts re- 'again' and undare 'to overflow', the same root as abundant. So when files are stored redundantly, they are kept 'again' as extra copies to give you a safe backup, like filling extra water jars in case one breaks.
