Don't worry much, if the update goes fine nothing will happen to your data.

Everything should go fine. You should make more backups in the future though to lessen the impact if something were to go wrong.

Well as people have said, ios 10 update shouldn't cause anything to be lost.
Is your Ipad set to backup from the cloud anyway?
If you've enabled data backup on Icloud then even if something were to happen your stuff would theoretically be okay.
This is what I've done with my Iphone, though mostly what is on there are games, phone contacts and aps since I don't use it for music etc.
I admit I would prefer to have control over the backups and backup directly onto an external drive, but almighty apple won't let me do that, even with the dreaded itunes so I'll just use the cloud for now.

Well, Dark, you could actually move the backup manually once it has been created in iTunes. The only problem is that the software wouldn't see it then, and I'm not sure if you can manually specify a file path to a backup to restore from anywhere. However, it should still help you if you wanted to create more large backups and have them stored on an external drive to save some space on your main one. You could then only choose the one you actually want to rrestore from and put it back to the iTunes folder.
