I would stay away from reconditioned

Yes thats a reasonable plan, I would not buy anything recondition and for cloud, i’d look at idrive

go with idrive, pcloud does not offer the same functionality, credibility etc

I would have a look at idrive, user friendly and affordable

I would check out idrive, affordable. They offer private key encryption also. Will backup your external drives too

flatbed is best in my opinion, feeder is good for a few old photos, etc,…but cataloging many of them, and they possibly might be bent, etc flatbed is best

i’d use rclone with idrive e2…

wetrasnfer is great, have been around a long time.

they started changing all of this as you mentioned, but I think the tips already posted will work

I follow it personally, backup locally to a WD drive, and cloud is idrive

Did you look into their express service? They can send you a hard drive for your first big upload

Yes, IDrive works here, they’ll send you a hard drive with their service called IDrive express, Good product and pricing too…so every backup after your first upload via idrive express will be incremental…

This company is going backwards fasst

I would suggest idrive e2, no egress also

good discounts on first year also
