external drives for storage are cheap now- depending on what I need to save I also record on DVD's at the same time.
Smart man.

Do to the recent cyber attacks on websites, users of CLOUD services and internet active services may be slowed or even halted due to these attacks on servers and the internet as a whole. There have been numerous sites that have been ground to a halt for long periods including Youtube and Google. Just a word to the wise when utilizing open servers for backup or other services. Email may even be suspended for periods of time from this adverse and unprovoked cyber assault.
Actually, I went out last week and purchased a Seagate Backup Plus 2 Terabyte Plus external Drive for my home systems (HP Pavilion and Sony Vaio laptops along with a Toshiba netbook) to provide back-up for my documents and photographs so I wasn't dependent on Norton or Adobe Revell cloud storage.
It was only $119.00 and reads just like an additional drive.

I have always wanted to control my data, thus NO CLOUD for me.

Seagate is an outstanding product, wise choice. After my fiasco I picked up a Western Digital Passport just for my image files. It just sets there and once in a while will hum just a bit so I know it's working.
