I've used up the easy Google functions on my phone 😔
NAS
Have you worked out your running costs? If so how do they stack up?
I do actually have a home WD "cloud" storage device I haven't actually set up yet. Which it sounds like I should.
I guess I just trust Google's backup systems more than mine.
edit: using the search function while in a laptop and using the shift/select function is pretty good. Means you can search for say "serial number" and bulk delete all those random photos of serial numbers, receipts, etc. you don't need any more.

I have not. It's only a two HD server, though, so I think fairly low wattage.

Microsoft 365 family is 79.99 for a year and you get 6x 1TB onedrive accounts for that. I use this for video file storage.
Create the primary account and then 5 dummy accounts and share the onedrive folders with the primary and you have a pretty solid sync client and 6tb of storage in one place. Admittedly it's a bit annoying doing the initial 6 logins fanny around but once it's running it's been very reliable for me. I like how you can right click a folder you need keep it on your device and then just send it back to the cloud easily.

I've done this using a NAS. Freed up tonnes of space on Google Drive. I'll back up to an external hard drive every month.
I think Google photos has some way of getting rid of blurry photos and duplicates, but I can't remember. I think if you go to Manage Space or something?
