Hi All!

As the title says, I am on the search now for a file storage system. Currently I have all of my photos and associated files backing up to cloud storage which works well. But I do worry if I reach a day where a provider decides to stop cloud storage (highly unlikely) or I decide to move to another method and I am downloading tb worth of data and moving it.

Currently thinking of switching to a (noob friendly) NAS where my onedrive will backup on to it once a month or so.

I am also really clueless on servers, this has been a thought over the weekend while storing more images.

Am I crazy or does this sound like a good option?

    I start with files stored locally and synced to OneDrive for backup. Once I am done with heavy editing work on files, and/or don’t need high availability I migrate them to my NAS which is backed up locally to an external drive and backed-up to the cloud.

    I use and highly recommend Synology for NAS devices.
