So I just edit on my iPad right now since I don’t have a lap top at the moment but I’m just wonder where you guys store photos? I’m using google drive right now but after 1 photo shoot my storage is full and I don’t know where I can upload the other 2 shoots I did. Pls leave suggestions, I don’t mind paying for something as long as it’s a lot of storage
I have local backups on internal and external hard drives. For offsite backups, I use Amazon Photos, which offers unlimited storage with Amazon Prime.
Truenas server in my basement made from old hardware people were throwing away and a bunch of drives in a configuration where I can lose two of them and still recover, so I can have piece of mind not running the most top tier reliable newly bought drives.
Add an easy to set up wireguard vpn paired with duckdns as a dyndns provider makes my personal ‘cloud’ storage solution with a minimal risk of anyone unauthorized accessing my data.
I have a file server at home with 26 TB of RAID5 storage that, in turn, is backed up to 3 RAID5 NASes. I would NEVER store photographs on something as volatile as an SD card or a single hard-drive.
file server in my office + backup in my office + backup at home
before that: Synology NAS <- easy to set up & forget (and backup to another Synology box)

Like… Google Drive? It’s £7 pm for 2 TB, whether that’s “a lot” is up for debate.
Multiple hard drives, cloud service.
Follow the 3-2-1 rule. 3 back ups. Two different types, and one in cloud/off site.
