[QUOTE="rollestonpark, post: 7669264, member: 76444"] It's very much personal preference, but I like to use a NAS (network attached storage) device, such as Qnap or synology. I store most of my data there and share it to all my network devices. You can sync all or parts of the NAS data to the cloud as well if that's what you want, but we don't have sufficient broadband speed to sync any quantity of data to the cloud. So that's not something I do. I got a 8 bay Qnap drive some years ago and put 3x 2TB hard drives into it (as a RAID5) and it's been running continuously. I did have 1 of the drives fail after about 1.5 years and I got that replaced under warranty. But with it being a RAID5, any 1 drive can fail without data loss, then you can hot swap it, and it'll rebuild automatically. So when I fill these drives, I can just add more 2TB drives as I go along. [/QUOTE]
