This seems like a good time to plug running a storage server on your local network. You can pick up old workstations off eBay for 100$. Stick a couple of drives in it, load it up with data to preserve and then put encrypted backups in the cloud. Back blaze B2 is something like .001$ per gigabyte.

It's a fun experiment with clear, practical use.

Not quite that cheap 0.005$ per GB. USD 6 per month for personal unlimited backup though.

Trying the trial now.

Thanks for bringing it to my attention.
