Look into GoodSync. I use it to make scheduled back ups of 2 external HD's - each into its own 4 TB portable which I swap off periodically. You can set your schedule just about anyway you want it. The backup is NOT encrypted. I believe a Cloud is available.

Another vote for Backblaze. Don't know of any "free" cloud service that will back up more than about 20Gb.

I use GoodSync as well as ARQ to backup files. GoodSync does support Cloud backups, but requires a bit more technical expertise and planning to set up than ARQ.

I use IDrive. Intro price is very cheap and you can store up to 5 Terabytes. It is a cloud backup

The first thing I would do is determine whether all 40,000 images are worth saving.

Backblaze personal lists now a days for 72.00 per year... unless you have special discounts. What bugged me about Backblaze was the restore method, it seemed like more work involved then it should be.

I used to use Crashplan for off site cloud backup of my system - it was cheap when it started out, they switched from home to pro/business and gave me a year at a discounted price of like 2.50 per month, but when the discount ran out the pice went to 10.00 a month.

It was a good system, after the initial upload which took a week or so 24x7 things were fine. Backups were constant, restores quick and easy with multiple versions stored online.

BUT 10.00 a month was more than I wanted to pay for a cloud based backup system.

I now do not maintain a cloud based backup, preferring an external attached Time Machine backup which runs every hour, creates backups of my entire system, including my images, and holds plenty of backups going back years on a 10 GB external attached drive. I also maintain a backup of my images on a separate external monthly that gets stored in a fireproof/waterproof box. My best images are published on Flicker, so that could be called my cloud backup at a cost of 49.00 per year.

With the paid Flicker pro account, I also received a 2 month credit going towards my Adobe CC monthly subscription, in effect reducing the Flicker account cost back to 29.00 a year.

Nothing but problems with Backblaze...their support is horrible. Once a week I have to reinstall it so it will backup...they will not refund my money, so going to wait them out. Switching to CrashPlan..

I use syncbackfree. Great program. Does multiple backup routines, auto. Gives a full report each backup.

FWIW - Used Crashplan for about 2 years on my iMac - the only problem was after a certain number of files I needed to set the memory limit higher - their support provided easy instruction via 1 email to their support desk.

The reason I am no longer using it for cloud backup is the cost of their current plan. Backups and restores were easy. I was using almost 2 TB for storage.
