Talk me into getting renters insurance for my new apartment

My landlord is requiring renters insurance, but I'm unsure if it's really necessary. I've heard it can cost anywhere from $15 to $30 a month, which adds up. I'm torn between wanting to save money and ensuring I'm protected—especially with my valuable tech gear. Can someone convince me it's worth it?
